Title: Asus Q302L - HARD DRIVE IMPOSSIBLE TO UPGRADE!
Post by: Mark Dewhurst on October 02, 2017, 01:21:56
Wow! Has anyone else encountered this problem? When I opened the case on my Asus Q302L PC, it appears that you CANNOT upgrade the hard drive! A drive replacement with a faster SSD drive may be impossible on this PC!
   I've upgraded several laptops before with an SSD drive and it's usually a piece of cake - why has Asus ruled this out on the Q302L? There's a tiny sticker that says you'll void the warranty if you try to remove the factory HDD! I mean, that's just WEIRD!
  Why is ASUS treating its customers this way? Otherwise, the PC is fine, but just has somewhat slow performance with the factory-installed HDD. New SSD would make this PC a perfect machine! Why dis-allow user upgrade?
  Anyone out there have any advice? Am I missing something?
---Thanks!
