Attempted to upgrade my C710 with the:
PNY XLR8 SATA 120GB 6Gbps 2.5-Inch Solid State Drive SSD9SC120GMDF-RB
Didn't fit.
Unfortunately, one corner of the SSD --near the SATA-connector-- interferes with a screw on the motherboard/chassis. And then the laptop cover cannot be re-attached.
Hope this comment saves someone some grief.
Not sure I understand.
Pics?

Seems its still not clear what brand/size of SSD that you can upgrade to? 60GB? 120? 480?
