    hi guys,

    I'm having problems with my ultrabook since the 5th day of usage.

    After lots of tests we discovered that my SSD has gone and I am having a hard time finding another one to replace it.

    Does anybody here (for some reason) have a SSD to sell? Of course an functional one...

    Hopefully...

    Thanks

    Do you not have any warranty left for your notebook computer? I believe that's still quite a new model that you have got.

    i don think the ssd is replaceable. I think that it is soldered to the board. The only way to replace the ssd is to replace the board. I could be wrong though. I know for sure that the ram is soldered to the board. You should definitely have warranty left on that laptop since it is <6 months old.

    The SSD is a low-profile or "gumstick" form factor, it can be replaced but finding sellers of those SSDs is hard.
