    Hello everyone. I just received my new G50V-X1 from Newegg. After a lot of indulgence between Gateway FX and all other G50 series, I decided to go for this one. I must say this baby is beautiful. I also ordered a 250GB HDD. Now how do I install the 2nd drive? I opened the back panel and there is a empty slot too. But there is no aluminium plate to screw the HDD with the chassis like the 1st drive. Is it supposed to be like this or I have to buy it? If so, where can I get it? For the time being I plugged the HDD just like that. It looks firm but I don't want to take risk. Thanks and Happy gaming! :)

    Edit: ASUS website says I can buy extended warranty (3 years) within 30 days. Does anyone know where can I buy one year extra warranty? I know gentechpc sells for about $120 with the purchase of a new system. But I want to buy only warranty since newegg did not offer me any.
