Another question. My Ultrabook came without disks ( I got just an
empty sled without the adaptor board ), a usually reliable source told
me that the sled design( or just the connector, not sure ) was
borrowed from 'some Dell laptop'. Any ideas about that?

I asked RDI about that too. They said they still have plenty in stock.
It took them a week to tell me the price and when you see it you'll
know why they still have plenty. Try not to laugh:

EXTRA 20GB REMOVABLE DISK DRIVE FOR ULTRABOOKlli
U-20.0HDD  $991.80

What on earth are they smoking?

have fun
Michael
