I'm looking for a new laptop, for a client, that needs 2 internal hard drives. Anybody know of any good ones; Core i3 or i5 preferably, but no major CPU intensive tasks, so AMD or Pentium would suffice.

Budget about £500 - £600.

Thanks

The Dell XPS17 look good, but a little over budget.

New Core i3 and GT550M for £628 is pretty good though.

I thought I'd revive this thread with the successful outcome; I took El Wayneo's advice & got the XPS17 Core i3 and GT435 - £550. Added a Kingston 60GB SSD for the boot drive and the customer is very pleased with the results.
