    I am planning on installing an OWC 250GB SSD with 500MB/s READ/500MB/s writes in it and am awaiting shipment of a custom build.

    It just occurred to me that HP would be stupid enough to leave these out and I am now panicked.

    Are both HD bays SATA III capable?

    I could not find a single spec sheet that addressed this which is stunning to me considering the people buying this notebook are obviously looking for performance.
