A new Dell Inspiron 3670 is advertised as suitable for running Ubuntu (Linux).  I haven't yet tried installing it but one of the features of Ubuntu is being able to use the installation disk for running Ubuntu without installing it.  This seemed like a good idea but when it was done the built in SSD is nowhere to be found.  It is not going to work very good if it cannot use the built in disk drives. I also tried the System Rescue CD which is something I depend on for troubleshooting.  The same result occurs with it.

What's wrong?
