About the MSI Katana 17
Part of MSI's gaming range, the MSI Katana 17 is a gaming laptop with dedicated graphics. It has a large 17-inch screen; panels this size cost more and are sometimes ordered in.
Its memory and storage can both be upgraded. Parts are still widely available, either new or as tested replacements.

Can you get my files off a MSI Katana 17 that won’t turn on?
Usually, yes. The MSI Katana 17 has a removable drive, so we can often read it directly even if the rest of the laptop is dead. If the drive itself has failed, we recover your files from a copy.
How long does a MSI Katana 17 repair take?
Screen, keyboard and battery repairs are often done the same day when the part is in stock. Board repairs take a few days, and we give you a timescale with the quote.
