    Hey - does anyone know if it is possible to upgrade the ID49C01h?

    I've upgraded the stock 640gb scorpio blue to a 120gb Vertex 2, but that was simple. I'm now looking at battery and anything else that may work.

    I know GPU is out of the question as it uses optimus, but is CPU as well? I have no idea if it is soldered on, but have no experience in checking that.

    I found this battery online, but I'm not sure if it's legit. Does anyone know anything about the website? Replacement Laptop Battery for 6000mAh ACER AS10H3E, BT.00607.133, AS10H75, BT.00603.118,

    What about hard drive caddy? I've looked around and couldn't find a specific model for this laptop. Would a universal one work? I wouldn't mind switching the dvd drive for an extra HDD.

    Thanks.
