Fast DDR4 memory soldered to the board. Enough to run multiple enterprise applications, browser tabs, and collaboration tools simultaneously without lag.
256GB PCIe NVMe SSD
M.2 PCIe NVMe solid-state storage — Windows boots in under 15 seconds, files open instantly. Dramatically faster than any traditional hard drive.
