Take work with you by using this Samsung Chromebook Pro laptop. Its 360-degree hinge lets you use it like a tablet with the built-in pen, and the Intel Core m3 processor and 4GB of RAM handle multiple browser tabs for research. This Samsung Chromebook Pro laptop has 64GB of flash memory for fast boot times and document storage space.
Q: is the Chromebook solid state?
A: The Chromebook is in the strictest sense a solid state device. However, if you're referring to its hard drive, the 64Gb drive (or 32Gb) is not an SSD (solid state drive), but is listed as an eMMC (embedded multi-media card) which is slightly slower than an SSD, but probably not noticeable to us mere non-geek mortals.
A: Good question, just had my pro for a week and just happen to have a list: The chromebook can't perform operations that require drivers and can't be run directly from USB. For example, playback of surveillance camera footage on a swann dvr is not possible although the live streaming app (originally designed for android phones) works fine. Certain programs require software operating on a windows pc in order to perform wifi sync between the android phone and another android device. Since the phone apps that are installed on the chromebook using the googleplay store are phone apps which have been adapted for chromebook, they will not sync between the chromebook and android phone directly. If you shoot videos on a typical digital camera it will be in .avi format. Chromebook will not play those videos at all unless converted to another format using a complex file-by-file process. If you have an older printer that is connected to your windows pc using a usb cable i.e. it is not connected to wifi or LAN network then you can't print to it directly nor with Google Cloud. If you have Excel or Word documents, that you transfer over to your chromebook, say with a usb dongle, then you can read them but not edit unless you pay subscription to Microsoft. They call it 365 or some such. You can't import your Excel spreadsheets to Google sheets if the Excel spreadsheet has password protection because Google sheets has no password protection feature. The usb-c charging connector and charging cable are not compatible with the usb connectors your house is filled with. You must buy an adapter cable. I still like the chromebook pro very much, just be sure to do your homework before springing for any chromebook. I'll write a review later.
