And this is an issue because? You can buy a kit specifically for the
purpose of upgrading internal laptop hard disks at Best Buy for under
$200,
including the disk.

Ultimately the $500 warranty got me $385 in additional discounts and and 3
years of antivirus protection which I would buy anyway, The real cost of
the warranty was $115 after comparing the exact same purchase with out
adding the 4 year extended warranty.
