I generally don't try to be pessimistic, but "I'll believe it when I see it". So far, this is a typical Alienware response to a very "tired" issue. I too have emailed Alienware on several occasions and have received...

Sorry bro for such a late post, but I don't get here that often. I purchased my second hard drive with the original system and have no idea what it cost then or now. Parts for the 766m are sporadically available through a couple of...

I got the second harddrive kit when I purchased my 766. Within about 2 months of use, I regulated it down to a small backup system. It's too much of a pain to swap in and out when I use the CD/DVD on a regular basis. It's not...
