Q: Does this laptop have a dvd-cd player?
A: Yes, the computer can play cd's and dvd's. It does not have a blue ray player.
Q: IS THIS GOOD FOR A COLLEGE STUDENT
A: Good, sure. It'd type documents, allow them to watch videos and surf the Internet, and even play games. Is it the best fit? Depends on the student. The laptop weighs 6.5+ pounds, so it'll be a behemoth to have to carry if commuting or to constantly carry across Campus. I'd only recommend this if the student will be minimizing the distance they have to carry the laptop. (Also I'm sure the battery will last between 4-6 hours)

The 8GB RAM is solid state, no moving parts, so it should last for at least 10 years. The 1TB hard drive should always be backed up on to an external archive drive.
Q: Can I get an SSD installed in store without compromising the warranty?
A: If the work is done by a certified technician you factory warranty should be in tact. The caveat would relate to the replacement drive, but that should be warranted by the certified technician. Confirm that before you have the work done. Be sure it's in writing. Obviously, since the new drive is not OEM, it would not be covered by the original factory warranty.
