Then, in terms of upgradability, you have a decent package – you can install M.2 drives with speeds of up to PCIe x2, and there is a 2.5″ SATA drive slot. Memory-wise the picture is not that colorful, as there are 8GB soldered to the motherboard and only one RAM DIMM. Moreover, it can total at 16GB, compared to 32GB in some of the competition. Additionally, the I/O is impressive by having an Ethernet port, USB Type-C, and an SD card reader, on top of the other stuff. However, we were not very pleased by the 5Gbps limit on the Type-C and the duo of super slow USB Type-A 2.0 ports.
