			My unit came with both a regular hard drive and an [[mSSD]] drive which identifies itself as "LITEONIT LMT-32L3M-HP" and appears to have ~32GB of capacity. I replaced it with a 256 GB unit from [[NewEgg]], with no problems.

			Annoying issues:
			* The <code>[ins]</code> (insert) key requires pressing the <code>[fn]</code> (function) key to access it. The <code>[fn]</code> key is on the left, the <code>[ins]</code> key is on the right – so you need both hands to press the <code>[ins]</code> key, unless you turn off <code>[num lock]</code> and use the <code>[ins]</code> key there.
			* The <code>[ins]</code> is right next to the key for turning off the wireless – so I'm always accidentally disconnecting myself from the network when I'm trying to copy or paste.
			* This is presumably a bug which may have been fixed: the wireless hardware does not initialize properly on rebooting. (This problem also applies under [[Windows 10]], so it's not a Linux driver deficiency.) You have to wait until the OS is booted, then ''suspend'' (by closing the lid); the wireless will start working a few seconds after un-suspending, if it has been switched on (via the key).
			** When the wireless isn't working, there's no way to tell whether it has been switched on. (Fortunately, it does at least remember its last state when rebooted – so if you can get it working once, you just need to not accidentally turn it off.)
			* The power cord comes out very easily. Several times I've not noticed that it had come partway out just before I got up to do something else, and the machine was running on battery power the whole time I was afk – resulting in the battery draining completely and the machine losing power, even though it appeared to be plugged in. (It's important to check the on-screen power-status indicator, especially if you notice that the screen seems a little dim.)
