Hi, I recently bought an Asus ROG G750JX-TB71 and i'm planning on popping in an 840 Pro SSD in the other free empty drive space. I'm wondering if the accessories I need to mount and install it are included with the laptop or if i need to make separate purchases.

Another thing is if the laptop includes an installation disk of windows 8 i can use to install it in the SSD once i pop it in?
 
for the ssd most newer ones come with drive clone software. clone the hard drive over to the new ssd. most laptops now have a restore partion on them..you may be able with a few dvd make a set of restore disk for the laptop.
 
hmm, i see. Does anyone know if the laptop provides mounting brackets for the ssd? The laptop has an extra space where i can put in an extra hard drive or ssd.
