    Assuming the Y580 includes a mSata port, is it possible to get say, a 32GB SSD and just use it as a sort of cache? Or would you be better off spending the extra money and getting a 64/128GB SSD and use it as a boot drive?

    I guess no one knows... :(
    I was thinking of the way the Z68 series of intel chipsets work where you can specify a SSD to act as a sort of caching setup...

    Anyway...
