“Does anyone know what form factor the M.2 SSD is in this laptop? How about the latency of the one RAM stick it comes with? I'm trying to decide whether to buy this model and upgrade, or just spring for more RAM and storage from the start. Thanks”

It uses standard 2280 gen 3 NVME SSD. I personally added a 2tb intel 660p drive. It comes with 1x 8gb stick of 3200mhz Samsung manufactured RAM however the sticker on it I can’t see the CAS latency it’s rated for I’ll ad a picture of the stick mine came with . And the i5-10500h actually can’t run RAM at 3200mhz it maxes out at 2933mhz. I added a team group 3200mhz 32gb kit and it automatically clocked the ram at 2933mhz. The 8gb it comes with is not good enough for gaming as you will use 5gb of ram just sitting at the Home Screen using windows 10. I would say minimum grab yourself a 16gb kit Over all I’d say the laptop is the best 800$ option on sale and you can easily open it up with a plillips screw driver and an old credit card to upgrade the RAM and SSD capacity. Just remember to unplug the battery befor you add the new components. there are tear down guides on YouTube showing how to do these upgrades
