I may have gone hog wild, but I blew it out to 64GB. Some of that is used for video memory. The remainder is 62.5GB. Of which I am currently using 6.02GB with Debian 12 and XFCE. My plan is that this one will last me for a while. It has two slots for memory. I don't know whether you can put one stick in now and leave the other slot for later. The pre-sales technical support was excellent; you might inquire. > M.2 SSD Drive: 250GB NVME SSD Again, possibly overboard: I went with 1TB, of which I have about 400GB not allocated. > Hard Drive: Select > 2nd SATA 2.5" or Optical Drive: Standard DVD Writer > Partition Scheme: OS on NVME drive & separate /home partition on > the largest available drive if 2+ drives I did my own partition scheme. > Bluetooth: No Thanks It actually does have a bluetooth adapter on it.
