Q: How do I know what SSD will be compatible with this laptop? Thanks!
A: Just bought this computer for my son. I was hopeful based on the design that it possessed a M.2 Slot for SSD drives and it does! The slot only fits a M.2 - 2280 stick because there is only one mounting screw port present. I have included some photos to show everyone what is underneath. I placed a M.2 PCIe SATA Crucial MX300 275GB stick in the M.2 slot and it recognized and boots on the drive with no problem. The motherboard recognizes the drive as SATA 1 with SATA 0 being the 2.5 1TB drive that came with the computer. So I now have the 256GB drive running the OS and the 1TB drive that came with the computer (2.5inch WD Slim drive) as a storage drive.
A: Yes this computer is great with games.
Q: does it come with software on disc's in case something happens ? unlike ASUS!
A: Windows 10 automatically makes a recovery partition on the Hdd. This way the whole computer can be reset without the use of external media. Of you want to there are guides online on how to make an external backup that will reset your computer to baseline. Google is your friend!
A: This unit has both integrated Intel® HD Graphics 520 and dedicated graphics.
Q: Is this laptop miracast enabled?
A: Yes it is. I use this laptop to project to my TV using a MICROSOFT adapter.
Q: Does NVIDIA GeForce 940MX have GDDR5 or DDR3 ?
A: It's DDR3 memory.
A: Acer does not offer the option to change or upgrade the internal components on the laptop products.
A: This model ships with 12GB memory; 4GB is onboard and the one memory slot has an 8GB memory stick, which is the max supported in that slot.
