    The system gets extremely hot to the point that I could not continue typing for one hour. Also, the description of the item at BestBuy website is incorrect be aware... it says that the laptop has two 2 TB SSD but in reality It has two 1 TB SSD. it says it has a detachable screen but it doesn't detach. I think the person who did the description copy and past from other system. I have only used it for one hour and decided to return it the next day after waiting few days for delivery.

      Dear CadMaster,

      I'm sorry for the confusion. I would like to clear up the confusion on ASUS's behalf. The W500G5TXS77 features a 1TB SSD + 1TB SSD in a RAID 0 configuration. If you need any assistance, feel free to contact me at [email protected], and I will help you to the best of my abilities. I am here to assist our customers with our products and dedicated to bringing a resolution to all issues that they may come across. Your case for reference is N200779953.

      Thank you for choosing ASUS!

    I purchased this computer for the speed and the fact that it has 2 hard drives. The hard drives are set to RAID 0, which is the dumbest thing done by ASUS. If you lose one drive, you lose all your data. I tried to call technical support to change it from RAID 0 to 2 separate drives, but they hung up on me after staying on hold for 2 hours. I tried again for another 2 hours, and they hung up on me again. Imagine if I had a real problem and needed technical support!!!! This computer is going back to best buy. I do not recommend ASUS at all. I think ASUS is too big to care for their customers as they used to in the past. I will switch to Framework laptops; they are good computers.
