A:AnswerHi David! The HP A9PE6UA is from our basic, general home and student computer line. On a scale of good - better - best, the HP series is good. Sub-brands like the Pavilion, Envy, Sceptre, ProBook, EliteBook, and OmniBook cater to business, professional, and creative users who require specific features, and the majority of those fit the "best" category. HP Chromebook laptops use the Chrome operating system, whereas the formerly named sub-brands use the Windows operating system.
A:AnswerThank you for the question. Windows 11 Home in S Mode is typically installed on entry and general home use models and offers additional safety measures. The laptop can be taken out of S Mode in a free and simple operation. This conversion is not reversible.

A:AnswerHi Joe, thank you for the question. The HP A9PE6UA laptop does not have space to add another SSD. You can switch the included SSD for one with more capacity (we recommend a professional technician do this), or connect an external drive via USB.
