Often there are regional differences in specs for removable (wireless, graphics) components and some drivers may be new so not in distros for a while. A pre-installed kernel may use a configuration that isn't in distros, so installing Fedora might run into some issues. At the worst you might have to live without wireless or Nvidia graphics for the time it takes to sort out any issues. Your storage is probably above and beyond the pre-installed offerings.
