The system includes 16GB DDR5 SO-DIMM memory and a 4TB PCIe NVMe SSD. Connectivity covers 802.11ax WiFi 6E, Bluetooth 5.4, RJ-45, HDMI and a headphone/microphone combo jack.
Sustained Load Behaviour With 90 WHr Battery

Questions about this item
Will the 18 inch 240 Hz panel fit on a standard 15 inch laptop stand?
The chassis measures 15.75 inches deep by 11.75 inches wide, so a 15 inch stand will be too small; choose a stand rated for at least 16 inch depth.
Can I add more memory later without replacing the existing 16 GB module?
The laptop uses DDR5 SO-DIMM slots; if a second slot is free you can install another DDR5 stick, otherwise you must replace the 16 GB module.
Does the 4 TB drive use the NVMe protocol so I can clone it to another NVMe SSD?
Yes, the 4 TB PCIe SSD is an NVMe drive, so any standard NVMe cloning tool or enclosure will work for migration.
