    Hello there, i've recently decided to get myself an Acer TravelMate 6463WLMi. Now i've noticed that it comes with two media bays, however what i'm not sure of is whether there used or not, the model comes with a DVD super drive and a 80GB hard drive, i'm wondering would anyone know whether they'll be built into the laptop or whether they'd be using the media bay.

    What i'd like to do is put in an extra 6 cell battery for longer battery life, the laptop comes with a 8 cell battery so would anyone have any idea how much this could improve my battery life? Also any ideas whats the cheapest i could get a media bay battery for...

    Thank you.

    If you sign up for the AcerAdvantage extended warranty you can get 30% off a battery bought directly from Acer.
