Elimina III 15.6" - storage/input compatibility + which distro?

Hi! I'm new here, but I got my fair share of Archlinux/Manjaro experience.

Knowing how some hardware can be a pain to get running properly, anybody as any pointers to give me about the Elimina III 15.6"?

My main concern is the storage configuration, should I expect any problems using one of the PCIe SSD m.2 as a boot drive? I'd like to have a 2tb over SATA, 512gb over PCIe configuration, using the 512gb SSD to install my distro.

Other than that, I was wondering if the keyboard and touchpad work out of the box, if some configuration is required for everything to work (I imagine the backlighting, for example) or if some features are currently broken.

As I'll be dealing with a nVidia GPU I've already prepared to thinker as needed to get Optimus working - maybe going as far as changing my usual distro of choice. Got any suggestions?

Thank you to anyone who'd decide to help me out.

Lisa
