Greetings everyone,
I've been reading in the forum and I've seen how helpful your comments could be, I ask for your experience
Below are the specs of the laptop i'm planning to get.
I'm concerned about the storage options I've considered.
would getting the hybrid HDD be useful considering that I added mSATA drive of 120 GB? what do you think is the best option to get for an storage unit to keep a good speed of the system along with a relatively acceptable space.
awaiting your response and thank you in advance.
