    So I am on the cusp of ordering a Sager NP3250. XoticPC has agreed to ship it without a hard drive (thanks :)) and though I'm confident in my abilities of installing a hard drive, I'm not 100% confident. Are there any guides available (either for this model or even just a similar model) that I could use for reference?

    Thanks.

    The hard drive that I would be using is the OCZ Vertx III, if that makes any difference.

    It's one of the simplest things you can do. The user manual that comes with the laptop should have specific instructions.

    It's as simple as taking out the screws holding on the hdd bay cover, sliding in the new drive, and sealing it all back up again. Opening the package the drive came in may take the longest :p
