Yes, I had the M1710 keyboard in my E1705 (before I sold it). It looks MUCH MUCH nicer with the light grey keyboard! The color goes better with the chassis of the E1705. You will definitely like it!.

Uh, guys...have we not gotten a bit off topic here? I'm really interested in the drive caddies for the 1720, not the video card options that may or may not be available for the 1720....
