    Good afternoon ladies and gents.

    I am considering buying this 17.3" laptop, specifically the model with the i7-7500.

    I have two questions.

    1. This model seems to be able to hold two hard drives, what form factor does this model accept?

    A 2.5" and an M.2? (if so what size M2?)

    or

    A 2.5" and an mSATA?

    2. Does this model include an optical drive?

    Thank you in advance.
