thanks for this video. my son thought he would insert a 2nd disc into the drive and of course it got stuck. After opening up the case I was able to access the 2nd disc and pull out with tweezers. Everything works fine. And now I know how to upgrade when I'm ready.
Does Dell Studio Hybrid's harddisk is REGULAR PC 3.5 size or 2.5" Laptop size? Is this IDE or SATA? Can I basically upgrade the disk drive to 1TB to 2TB? Kindly reply. Thanks.
Could I update the processor to an i5 or something with out causing the machine to lose power? Does the i5 take in more power than the power supply unit powers in to everything else like ram and the hard drive? Basically, if I put in an Intel i5 processor or something would the machine not work because the i5 takes more power than the machine provides? Sorry to be confusing but thanks if anyone has any idea! :D
this looks like a laptop minus the screen and portability ... ithink i rather get a laptop as a media center pc replacement that i could disconnect from my flat screen tv when ever i wanna be online and watch some tv at the same time..
Thanks for the video. I thought it would be hard to remove the hard disk. My hard disk just failed after 2 years.

This was a great video! I was wondering if it is possible to upgrade the memory because that would be the deciding factor to if I would buy this.
By the way, is it easy to replace the memory? This seems like the perfect computer for me if I can add minor add ons

Will i be able to upgrade the RAM to a higher performance brand?

Yes, but within the limits of the chipset, in terms of rated speeds, which I believe is DDR2-667.
