I have a new Alienware 17 (4930MX, GTX 780M, 32GB). I asked for 1TB SSD RAID-0 but it came from factory with 3 SSDs in RAID-0 and then a single mSATA disk on its own.
Two bad issues:
#1. After the laptop woke up from sleep, the screen turned black. Would not come on. Happens 8 out of 10 times it goes to sleep. Need to hard power off and power on.
#2. The standalone mSATA drive went missing after a few days. BIOS shows that it s not there.
So, I am now stuck with a practically useless laptop that costs 5K. Brand new. Less than 7 days of use.
