    Can someone who has purchased this model tell me if it comes with a system restore disk for Win7 and Asus drivers or do I have to make one?

    I'm about to pull the trigger on this and I'd like to replace the drive right off the bat so I'm curious how much work it will be to put in a 7200 rpm drive and put Windows back on it.

    Would something like Paragon work better?
