    The difference would probably be just with the heatsink and heatpipes.

    I have great news for you, you have an extra miniPCIe port and a SATA connector.

    Means you can add anther HDD and something else like turbo memory.
    I have attached an image showing what I mean.

    I can give you instructions on how to get it working if you want.

    This will also be interesting for you:

    You can do a similar thing to your notebook.

    Well, I have no need for Turbo Memory. Plus, I already have two HDD's in it, the ones that came with it.

    The main reason I want to know this is because as you may know from the other topic, I am planning on putting a P9700 in my laptop.
