    I was looking and I understand the Z series can have 2 SSD's and was thinking maybe the S series can have 2 also.

    is so that would be cool, since arent SSD's the same size as a regular HD at least they look like it

    well, the SSD's on the Z are different compared to regular SSD's as they are Quad SSD's and in a more compressed space(i think) in RAID 0, but I doubt the S series can fit 2 HDD in there, unless you do a (possible?) mod with removing the DVD drive and using that space for a HDD.
    most if not all laptops in that 13-14" and dont have space to fit two hard drives, even alot of 15-16" laptops dont have that kind of space, some do

    The S series is very sleek, there's no room for a 2nd regular HDD. You might be able to do some custom job and place a HDD in the DVD drive bay...
