Guys, I just bought Lenovo Ideapad Z510.

Lenovo IdeaPad Z510 (59-398016) Laptop (4th Gen Ci7/ 8GB/ 1TB 8GB SSD/ Win8.1/ 2GB Graph) Rs.59850 Price in India - Buy Lenovo IdeaPad Z510 (59-398016) Laptop (4th Gen Ci7/ 8GB/ 1TB 8GB SSD/ Win8.1/ 2GB Graph) Dark Chocolate Online - Lenovo: Flipkart

The listing has a 8GB SSD drive, but I don't see it in device manager or disk management. How do I know I actually have it?

Try checking in bios.

Is the display anti glare ??

I may be a mSATA SSD for caching & HDD+SSD works together

Query:
Does this model come with HD or Full HD display?

Go to Disk management and see if it is formatted correctly..My ultrabook also had a 24GB SSD which wasnt formatted correctly and thus wasnt recognized

What is "it" here? In Disk Management I have only a single disk of 1TB, refer the attached screenshot.

Just call lenovo tech support and ask them. This is the easiest way

It should appear this way, if it doesnt appear.. then maybe either your SSD hardware is not present or it is unreadable within windows (Cache drive maybe)

You bought the exact same model right? From where you bought? Also verify the model number. You will find it in the stickers.
