This can be done because the solid state drives SSD's are not set up using jumpers as slaves and masters in the same way as conventional hard drives. Making this switch over gives you plenty of room for the full xp package the SP 3 update full anti virus soft ware and anything else you might want to add, the 4gb "D" drive is still plenty big enough to store files on until you can dounload onto disc or flash drive for storing elseware.this is after all a notebook not a pc.The xp version of this notebook has just the one 12gb drive and now you know why.
