QuestionCould anyone please confirm (proof screenshot/snapshot) that this supports SSD? If it does, does it support SSD+given 2TB HDD parallelly,extra slots available? and It seems CRUCIAL SSD website shows this model does not support NVME M.2 SSD? just SATA SSD?
Asked 7 years ago by Naruto.
- Answer Not going to crack the lid to take a pic but as a computer tech, trust me when I say that it does indeed have a sata connection and does support sata ssd but if I can give you another option which is MUCH better, don't swap hard drives but instead get an NVMe M.2 drive and install it and make it your boot drive and use the 2TB spinner as bulk storage for videos or pictures etc. Here's the one I installed and, trust me, it's by far the best plan : https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BN4NJ2J/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 To be precise, there is only one sata connector inside but if you take advantage of the M.2 slot with an NVMe drive you will be VERY happy you went that route.

QuestionCan I add to the 2 terabyte HDD a 1tb or smaller SSD?
Asked 7 years ago by Asusfan.
- Answer While it does only have a single SATA connector, it DOES have an M.2 NVMe slot. Go to Amazon and pick up a Samsung 970 EVO 500GB - NVMe PCIe M.2 2280 SSD (MZ-V7E500BW) for $116, snap it into it's slot, install windows on it and format your 2TB drive for bulk storage. You will be astounded at how this thing performs with that simple upgrade.

QuestionHow long is the battery life ? Can you use it in the dark?
Asked 6 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer You can use it in the dark, either in tablet mode, or the keyboard can be backlit (Function+F3 to make it brighter). I get about 4 hours of use, before the low battery warning, with the screen brightness at a comfortable level and using performance mode. If you scale things back to recommended settings you'll likely get more life. Four hours of heavy use is about all my brain can stand, anyhow.

QuestionAbout adding the Samsung m.2 NVME SSD to this computer. In the bios, mine shows 2 sata ssd slots, slot 0 and slot 1. It does not show any M.2 slot that I can find. Does the M.2 drive show up in the bios after it is installed? How do I boot from the M.2?
Asked 6 years ago by Mike.
- Answer I did not have to make any BIOS changes. I put the M.2 drive in and it showed up as an option when I started a fresh/clean install of Windows 10. I didn't even have to force it to boot from the USB drive for the install. I created an install USB from the Microsoft website and it even self-activated my install - no phone call to Microsoft needed. The performance upgrade is quite impressive!

QuestionIs this computer worth it if I get the student discount? Is this a good overall computer?
Asked 7 years ago by JTT6907.
- Answer It's worth it at full retail if you're not a gamer. It doesn't have a gaming video card. Be sure to install an NVMe stick in the M.2 slot instead of swapping out the hard drive. I put one in my machine (Samsung 970 EVO 500GB - NVMe PCIe M.2 2280 SSD (MZ-V7E500BW) at $116 from Amazon) and it's blindingly fast.

QuestionWhat stylus pens are compatible with this device?
Asked 7 years ago by Stylus.
- Answer I use the Bamboo Ink from Wacom and it works perfectly. Only catch is that you have to change it's mode (hold both buttons for 2 seconds) so that it uses the Windows Ink protocol instead of the Wacom protocol. $69 at Best Buy.
