    Hey i was just getting ready to buy a new laptop and i picked out the sony EB series but they dont have SSD options for it, i was wondering if it would be possible to install an SSD directly into the laptop or would i have to buy a caddy to fit it. The caddy i would get is 2nd Drive Caddy for Sony VAIO E & F Series (add 2nd HDD or SSD) [OBHD-SATA12-SATA-BU] - $44.75 : NewmodeUS, Hard Drive Caddys for Notebooks

    If you have any other recommendations let me know, or if its impossible that would help before i buy everything xD

    You need a caddy only if you want to install the 2nd hdd or ssd in to your laptop.Otherwise,remove the hdd inside your laptop and replace it with SSD.You need something like a converter if ssd does not fit into HDD slot.(it's connections.)
