    HP Envy 15t Touchscreen
    I really want an SSD for them, because they tend to load a lot of emails which takes forever and ever and eeeeever on an HDD. (Multiple thousands at times...)
    I'm looking at this laptop for my grandparents, and it looks great so far. They like the 1080p, backlit keyboard, and the touchscreen all together, though not required its nice.

    What I want to do is put a 256gb boot drive msata in it.
    What is the model number of this laptop, or how do i find it on the HP website...?
    Does this HP Envy 15t Touchscreen model come with a working msata port?
    Are there any problems with any of the various niceties of this particular laptop?
    It only shows up at $810 in the cart too, so its not too expensive.
    Is there a better laptop than this that has an msata port with similar features? (similar price or under $1000 please)

    I called HP and they said msata comes standard in their laptops, but don't offer any drives for it.
    I will just order an msata and install it myself, my grandparents just ordered the laptop.

    Depends on the laptop. They do have msata, or they have m.2 sata. HUGE Difference. If you tell me the model number, I can tell which version of msata it has.

    It should be the one I linked in the first post, but I don't think the HP website displays the model number.
    Or at least I couldn't find it.
