    Bradley,

    If I replace the chrome os Hard drive with one that has a Linux distro already installed will the linux work normally or is there something built in to stop it.

    It's something I do with an old dell I use for checking out distros.

    Regards,

    Jack

    I guess it's too late to answer this question now, but C710 is not IBM PC-compatible so standard linux distros do not run normally on it without any modifications.

    You can flash a IBM PC-compatible bootloader(coreboot+SEABIOS) on it to run other linux distros.

    Any suggested source for getting the 4 Gb RAM upgrade? Does this RAM have a model number?

    rwells78 -

    What is the hard drive called, or it's specific name, so that I may search around for a replacement, before taking my laptop apart?

If you replace the original wifi card, how do you get Chrome OS to recognize, or find and download driver for Intel AC 7260 wifi card?

Thanks.
