Hi all,

I need to buy a new powerfull laptop for photography. I need power, full HD display, good screen quality, and 2 drives to stop carrying some USB external drives.

I can see 3 models for this :
- XPS 17 but it's not professional model
- M6500 but the weight is huge to carry it everyday
- M4500 which would be the lighter without power compromise

Problem is that 2 drives M4500 model which has a PCIe SSD and a standard HD is only available for "large enterprise" (see capture above), but I guess it could be negociated. I also heard about new M4600 and M6600 line in next days but could not get any informations from Dell about this, so I guess I have to wait even if my need is urgent.

I'd like to know if someone here has already tested this M4500 configuration (PCIe SSD + HD) and how it works (bugs, performances, noise, heat,...) ?
Also, if you had informations about the M4600 availability that would help too ?

Thanks for reading.
