    I didn't notice any threads related to transportation of Clevo/Sager laptops. They tend to be on the more bulky side due to being amazing. I am looking into buying the P750DM-G or maybe the P870DM. Right now I have an Pelican U100 (Amazon Link) that I used to carry my Lenovo Y500 around in. I know a 17 inch laptop would not fit but am hoping that possibly the P750DM would. It looks like a pretty close fit because the thickness of the 750 is 38mm/1.49" from what I can find and the internal hard pocket is supposed to be able to support 1.5". I am not that confident that it would fit though, so here I am seeing how you guys cart around your monsters.

    Tumi Arrivé Narita Slim

    Works for at least a 17.3", pretty much indestructible and stacks on top of the wheeled carry-on. Cut off the top handles, though; don't need them. It has a successor that looks even stronger. Main thing is the construction of the strap's attachment points, always a weak spot.

    everki beacon. kind of wish i had gotten the titan, but getting the sager np9772 didn't justify the extra price. 17" laptops aren't that big a deal to carry but for non essential usage, carrying it is not worth it and i have a phone/s that can usually do the job. the beacon is still very awesome and a must when i do indeed have to carry it. and honestly it isn't so much the size of the desktop replacement laptop, it's also how humongous the 33ow power supply is.

    My Targus backpack from 2005 has lasted me through two 17 inch clevo gaming laptops and has ample space for me to bring nearly my entire gaming set up with me anywhere. It's been through thousands of miles of walking and thousands more on bikes and has held up well. I am about to retire it for a Slappa M.A.S.K. backpack with the changeable faces. Friend of mine has one and it is amazing how much you can fit in the thing, and its build quality feels top notch.

    I recommended him the backpack :p

    I own the Everki Beacon, quite similar to the Titan, but a bit smaller. Works fine with my college uses.

    I have a slightly smaller Swiss backpack for a 15" laptop, i've got my laptop, tablet and PS4 all into it while traveling, it was heavy but it let me not worry about checking them in :)

    Another evereki titan user here, it made carrying my P570WM possible.

    I've had an Ogio TP8 for at least a couple years. 17 inch squeezes in to it, though I think it is made for 15. But room enough for books, as well as my accessories and a camera.

    So I ended up getting the P870DM. I'm thinking I need to get a hood messenger - type bag to bring it ti work with me. I'm trying to avoid a backpack....they are far more functional but don't felt as professional in a workplace (atleast here in Florida). Anyone have suggestions, I'm thinking maybe something leather. If it does not have amazing padding maybe I will get a sleeve for the laptop. Carrying around a $2k+ laptop makes me nervous lol.
