On the storage side, there is a 512 GB SSD, a capacity in line with the standard for hard drives. Compared to the latter, however, an SSD offers several advantages because it is more robust, less energy-intensive, silent and much faster.
The SSD guarantees much better responsiveness and agility on a daily basis than a simple hard drive. Thanks to the SSD, we achieve, for example, much faster start/stop, processing and launch of applications, or even a faster arrival on the cards in online games.
If 512 GB on the integrated SSD is too tight, you can add an additional SSD or a hard drive via the free 2.5 inch slot.
You can also use an external storage device such as a USB-C / USB 3.0 device to take advantage of fast transfers.
As for the autonomy of this mobile computer, whose transport is as easy as that of an Ultrabook due to its controlled weight and finesse, expect about 6 hours of battery life with light use.
