    Thank you both Mr. 10% and Griebel.

    I will now order both an HDD with a big cache and the Crucial SSD 1 To MX-500 and clone the original disk to both.  You can never have too many backups!  If the SSD can be persuaded to work, no vibration and less heat should be good for the BM5.

    Not having a light meter, it is hard to say if the BS5 regulates its brightness automatically or not.  It always looks quite brilliant, whether day or dark.  Insofar as the blacks are a bit washed out —unless looking perpendicularly at the screen—, it might be that mine’s backlight is always at 100%.

    Is backlight failure on the BS5 a concern?  Or do other parts generally fail first, i.e., the motherboard on the BM5?
