So, I'm planning to buy a 17"-MBP, and after some contemplation, I've decided to replace the useless Superdrive with an SSD. My plan now is to get the 17" with the 128 GB SSD (I can get the good EDU-pricing on that), replace the SSD with a new SATA-III SSD, and put Apple's SSD into the Superdrive's bay using the data doubler. I'm then going to install OS X onto the new SSD in the main HDD-bay and use the 128 GB SSD as a secondary drive.
1) Am I going about this the right way? Did I overlook anything? Will this setup work well?
2) Does using an SSD in the Superdrive-bay cause any quirks? Some people are reporting sleep/hibernation issues, but doesn't that only happen when the data doubler-drive is also your boot drive?
3) Will this void my warranty?
