Dell Latitude E7240 - review - touchscreen, two hard drives

[@AbdoMohamed-yc2gr]

how does touch screen function ?

[@xyron.j]

why is my keyboard different to yours?

[@TheRetser]

just bought refurbished E7240 with 128GB SSD but need more storage space. Dell support says that I can only replace existing with larger SSD. You mention 2 hard drives in video above. Is it possible to upgrade by ADDING a second SSD drive? What are my options? I need about 250GB total.

Hi George. Please take a look to thread on Dell community forum - I added the detailed step with pictures how you can ADD the additional SSD or hard drive en.community.dell.com/support-forums/laptop/f/3518/t/19576937

[@MrWoot101]

In bios are your drives set as raid or AHCI? I only have one drive and it is set as Raid for some reason

[@shramscar]

I installed additional drive by myself. Here is instruction: en.community.dell.com/support-forums/laptop/f/3518/p/19576937/20647774#20647774 Hope it helps.

[@corey7219]

Mine came with no hard drive and no battery. $80. So, I got the only 512 gb msata ssd I could find on ebay $75, and a knockoff battery for $30. Total cost was $200.

Where do you buy it?

[@jbb6843]

Is this still a good laptop today? Im considering buying a used one

[@sumitnautiyal6223]

@Jakob- I have bought a used one, Core i7 4600U variant, a month ago and upgraded the RAM to 16 GB. I work on the Android studio, Web development and sometimes designing tools like Adobe Illustrator. Working fine. The only con I noticed is that it gets really hot while working so can't use it on the lap for longer durations of time.

[@u2kill]

Sumit Nautiyal thanks for the info man. I need this for Android Studio Dev

Hi Dear, I just wondering about touch screen model. It is backlit Keyboard? If it has, how to turn it on? Thanks u!

[@shramscar]

HI Samrong. Yes, this model has backlit keyboard - white colors. It has about four (4) level of brightnest for keyboard backlit. And you can tun it off. How to - on keyboard combination of keys: Fn (Blue Function) + Right arrow.

[@jennysok]

tshram thanks you. I don't know why my PC is not support backlit keyboard. It's touch screen version. But I can't see key to turn it on. Or maybe my model don't have it? Do u know any of it that don't have backlit keyboard?
