    IT'd be rather pointless, but yes, you could upgrade the 1.8in HD to solid state

    could you elaborate on as to why it would be pointless?

    some of immediate benefits i could think are..

    -improved battery life
    -noise reduction
    -speed

    another question..

    Do TX and TZ both have Ultra ATA interface? Not Serial ATA?

    The SSD that comes with an ordered TZ is a 1.8" ZIF drive, the HDDs are 2.5" SATA and the DVD is connected internally via USB.

    I have no idea what the TX uses.
