    N100 spec:

    Intel Core Duo 1.66GHz
    512RAM DDR2
    80GB HDD
    Intel GMA950
    DVD Drive

    I will add another stick of 512 for a total of 1GB in dual channel but can I upgrade the harddrive to a 100GB and a slot-load DVD burner?

    Thanks in advance

    Yes you can upgrade the hard drive. The optical drive should be upgradeable, but the LG 4082 in the review unit I had is a very good burner.

    The N100 I'm getting isn't equiped with a DVD burner. It's just a DVD/CDRW.
