    Hello!

    What is this a SSD with TPM in Asus model UX31A- XB72?

    Does this model have other case dimensions comparing to UX31A- DH71model (the same way as model UX32VD has thicker case for having other hardware)?

    Will this TPM affect my usage of this laptop in any way? For example, can I still install Windows system which I gain from torrent trackers, ah? ;-)

    Any limitations/restrictions/discomfort? They say this TPM forces me as a owner to set the password to boot the machine.... Can I switch off this option? Whats gonna be if I forget the password? Do I need to send the laptop to Asus official service?

    Any comments on this topic from the owners of such TPM machine are welcome!

     Thanks!
