It'd be a no brainer for me: Get the SSD myself and install it. For the exact same reason you give: You'll have a blast learning. Installing goes the same as with old tech drives: just plug it in, boot up, and install Windows. Don't clone Win from an old drive to the SSD, you should allow the...

There's only 39 models in total that are current and vpro compatible (https://msp.intel.com/find-a-vpro-system). Take a pick. My first 2 suggestions from my initial response here, the Lenovo T430 and Probook 6470, both are listed. The third suggestion (4340s) was an alternative. 4340s was...

HP ENVY Ultrabook 4 or 6. Very portable, i5, 6 or 8GB ram, both come default with 32gb SSD + 500gb hdd. I'd prefer a SSD only solution, especially for video encoding, and use external storage. If that's good for you: Lenovo Edge E530. These options should fit your budget nicely.

Looking for a prefabricated solution, this seems like an OK deal. With a bit of tinkering: MSI Laptop 1150$ - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834152370 128GB SSD - 84$ - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=20-171-646&IsVirtualParent=1 8GB ddr sodimm - 50$ -...

I was looking for a similar setup here: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/answers/id-1628191/enterprise-notebook-ssd-win-pro.html#10521866 It's VERY hard to find a 14" SSD laptop with an interesting price. The Lenovo T430u, probook 6470 are options. If you're provisioning the laptops yourself with...

I've made a pick and am recommending the Probook 4340s with 128GB SSD (will build it in ourselves) and 4gb extra ram. The combination of these 3 is 606,71€. The price advantage will cover for work hours in swapping the drives easily. It's made out of aluminum, the sturdiness makes up for it's...

Hi there, first time poster but hardly new to the hardware scene. I'm looking for a new base model for our enterprise to replace our current HP Probook 6560 & 6360 setups. I liked those models, they offer a sturdy design and hardware that remains potent for ~3y with solid warranty. Only looking...
