As everyone points out it comes with a 1 TB slow HDD, shocking in 2018

I switched the 1TB regular hard drive to 256 SD fast hard drive and works like a champ!

these specs)Pros:Cheap (if ~500 is cheap for you for the laptop market)Finger print scanner on the trackpad is a cool addition1TB hdd*8* gigs of ramCons:Software issues with the trackpadSlow for a computer in 2018Freezes oftenBottlenecks quicklyLaptop material is cheap/flimsykeyboard flexes when typingOverall, honestly, would not recommend this laptop to anyone

As others have said, the only downside is the slow 5400 RPM 1 TB hard drive.

I store all my media on the slower 1 TB hard drive and made a shortcut on the desktop for easy access

A good value is the 1tb + ssd combo.. not bad for the price

I followed the popular recommendations to purchase the 128GB SSD along with the 1TB hard drive

It has the latest i5 processor, a very adequate 8 GB of RAM and a large 1 TB hard disk

The reason I recommend doing this is because you don't want to let Windows try to download and install hundreds of MB's of updates and patches while running off the dog slow 1 TB hard drive.

After I set it up, it STILL WON’T recognize my fingerprint.

n’t work well.

n’t give up, bless my heart
