    I tried to configure 3 of th 2.5" drives, and the "Compatibility Alert" told me that if you selected the 3 drive option, the Primary drive must be the 64GB Minicard drive. Did you try this yet?

    Personally I believe a year from now, there will be 128GB PCIe minicard drives that I will be able to purchase and add to my machine if I want.

    Sorry mannyA but the only way we support 3 storage devices is with one of them being the 64GB SSD MiniCard. This is being fixed as we speak/type. :)

    I just saw in the EU dell pages that the 3.2MP camera is now a choice.

    UPDATE: But, unfortunately, not a GOBI card for EU yet...

    havoctex,



    I see that :( that's ok, but we can have the Minicard, and two 2.5 drives?

    and will a 128GB Minicard, fit in the space?


    dill is making changes to the site because, the i5 option was there but now it’s gone.



    Thank You, :)

    Since when was the internal fingerprint reader included? This has to be a refresh change?
