    I'd like to sell the 128GB Samsung SSD that is coming with my m17x and upgrade to an Intel instead. The problem is, I have no idea what the market value for one of these are. Would appreciate it if someone could give me a good asking price and I apologize if this isn't on topic enough for this section.

    Wouldn't you need the original drive, that came with your system in case a warranty issue comes up? That's why I went with the 250GB HD, I plan to upgrade to an Intel SSD down the road.

    Oh hmm, I completely forgot about that. I have the complete coverage warranty and if it's rendered useless since I no longer have the drive, then there's really no point in selling the SSD. Anyone know if the SSD can be sold without affecting warranty? Can't they just be responsible for everything besides that?

    Ya I not 100% positive on my information bro. Better to wait for someone with more knowledge about this or go straight to a DELL customer care rep. over the phone?
