I ordered a new vanquish II level 3 today. The sales department told me I could not add on a ssd drive because they are pre built. So I bought a Samsung 128 gig off amazon. Will I have any issues getting it into case or connecting to mother board? Also does the system come with a windows disc if not I can clone it all over I'm sure. I'm just worried if they put a system restore or something along them lines or deleting that partition. Thank you

Last I heard , all the systems come with Windows install discs.  Pretty sure they do.  The case has plenty of room to mount added drives.  I believe 4x 3.5" and 4x 2.5".  No problem there.   The mobo also has 2x SATA 6 and 2x SATA 3 connectors , two of them being used for the DVD and HDD.  So, room for two more drives.  You might have to pick up a SATA data cable for the drive to the mobo.  The power supply has added SATA power connectors you could use that are with the psu harness behind the right side cover, usually.    If its a modular psu, then the accessory box would have the added power cables that plug in as you need them. Good Luck and Congrats on the Vanquish lvl 3.  StrongBig%20Smile

Well it shipped today I will do a video of the unboxing of it and maybe some game videos. Super excited to see what it has to offer vs my 3 yr old machine.

To get the maximum performance you will want to make sure you connect the SSD to one of the SATA 6Gbps ports. Also, you will likely need a SATA 6Gbps cable, I don't think those come with the drives in most cases.
