Hello!

I bought a Dell Inspiron 15 at the end of January. I told the sales chat guy exactly what I needed it for and what my budget was. Well, based on his advice, I ended up raising my budget up so I could have the best possible computer for my use. 

Now, I usually don't buy a computer on my own, but the person that I usually consult wasn't available, so I figured, hey, the Dell chat guy must know what he is talking about.

The computer he sold me has a *** disc drive (5200 RPM, I believe). I told him I wanted it for recording software. After I bought it (buyer's remorse), several people told me that he should have sold me a SSD drive. 

Okay - here is my thing: I can go buy a SSD and install it. But will invalidate my expensive service plan and the warranty I have? Also, tech support plan? And does it matter if it is a Dell hardrive, and can I have someone install it here, or do I have to send the laptop back and have Dell install one of their SSD to keep the warranty and service plan intact?

Thanks.
