    Hello all,

    I've heard on this forum of quite a few people installing SSD or other hard drives on their TZ. If you have, could you please describe the process, and if there were any issues you ran into with the installs? Both on the hardware and the software side... Was it basically plug and play for you? I'd like to make this a general help thread for all wishing to do hard drive work on their TZs.

    Reason I'm interested is that I'm having trouble upgrading the 120gb Toshiba drive that came with my unit to the 240gb version. Physically putting in the drive was no problem, but now my TZ270N can't see the drive, so wondering if there are any BIOS limitations or any other Sony specific issues that people have run into.

    Thanks!
