Mrs has an Acer lappy, still in warranty, am I able to upgrade the mem and HDD without it adversly effecting the warranty status?


Second question, the lappy is an Aspire 5720Z, anyone know what kind of HDD fits in this, I assume it'll just be the standard 2.5" affair, but will it be a SATA or IDE drive?

Ta!
 
it will be SATA, should take any size as its a quite a new model, the recovery is on the harddrive tho so you will have to burn the discs to reinstall to the new hard drive, assuming you want the acer build on there, if you're not breaking any warranty void stickers (usually over screws that allow access to the inside of the laptop) then you should be fine, obviously any damage caused wont be covered but its simply a case of removing the hd or memory panel and replacing the parts.
