Just a generic one (Asrock I think) I picked up at a local computer shop. I have several – haven’t really noticed much difference between them performance wise.

I didn't even know that those exist... A little checking shows that they're actually not crazy expensive, if you actually have a use case that demands one. http://www.amazon.com/Lexar-Media-Flash-Memory-LSD128CRBNA133/dp/B004SAMZW4 If you don't mind me asking, what USB3 enclosure are you using for the 512 GB SSD?

Unbelievable piece of kit. I added an extra 512GB SSD (connected via USB3), so I have plenty of storage for VMs now. 128GB SD card holds installation ISOs Cheers Ken From: Webster [mailto:webs...@carlwebster.com<mailto:webs...@carlwebster.com>] Sent: Friday, 3 February 2012 11:47 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: ASUS laptops/notepbooks This doesn't apply to your situation, but I just bought a monster ASUS laptop to take with me on the road. I am on the road the next 2 months and possibly until July. I needed something so I could continue my writing while traveling. Core i7 quad-core w/HT, 17.3" screen, 16GB RAM and 2 500GB HDs – will run 5 VMs very well. It may run more but I only have 5 right now. This is my last day at current customer before I hit the road for 2 months and maybe 6 months. The guys here are really liking the laptop. I am sure my chiropractor will too as the monster weighs 10 lbs!

We currently use Dell or Lenovo laptops. Some of the ASUS models look very light, which would be good for our nomadic staff. Just wondering on long term durability, ability to image.
