DO NOT BUY this version. The HDD is the slowest possible thing they could have put in it. Worst experience I've had with a computer in my life. You might be thinking "I'll upgrade the hdd". Nightmare experience to upgrade. It does have a M.2 slot, but the motherboard is reversed. So you have to take the whole MB out to get access to it. Just awful. You can see it opened up here: http://www.ultrabookreview.com/12757-upgrade-ram-ssd-msi-gs73/
And look at the amazon reviews: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XJKYHPG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It's really unthinkable that they put this harddrive in there. I can't believe MSI would release this laptop with this HDD.

totallytroyI think all of their gs63vr laptops spec with a 1TB hdd use that same slow hgst thin low power drive. I wouldn't recommend this machine solely because it's missing a SSD connected via the m.2 slot. What a total pain in the ass to get to!
