So what are the cons? It's not thin, nor light. The camera is hot garbage to me, but the wife uses it for Zoom and hasn't complained yet, so there's that. The screen is ... meh. I mean, our phones have better screens, and I'll bet a $150 phone might as well. At first I was concerned about the 4GB of ram, but honestly, it hasn't been a problem YET. I'm sure, in the future we'll have to revisit this. I would like an ethernet jack, but it's hard to tell because they only use them in the house and we have good wi-fi. If we go on vacation, it might be a different story. Also, 128GB of storage is nothing these days. You will run out fast if you have a lot of media. But this problem isn't exclusive to this particular model, as the majority of laptops are in the same boat. So add the cost of external storage (SD card, external drive, cloud) to the overall price. Finally, the battery life is not good. You'll have to pay more to start getting decent longevity.

Another plus I didn't mention before: no heat. The fan is quiet, I've rarely noticed it running at all, and the chasis has never even felt warm. Heat per se doesn't bother me, but I've often been annoyed by fans running constantly or spooling up frequently with other laptops.

I also installed the sata cable from Amazon and it works properly as well. Flip up the small black hinge on JHDD1 and slide the cable end, blue side up (see photo) You'll just need to remove the battery also to fit the cable underneath.

Of all the corners to cut, this one baffles me. Even throw away $20 tablets have better cameras.

I don't really care because I won't ever be using the webcam, but it is good to know for anyone considering using this for their kid's Zoom meetings for school. I guess it's is better than nothing, but it's the equivalent of sending your teenager to school wearing the clothes they wore when they were 6 years old...the other kids are definitely going to make fun of them.
Actually, if they were going to put such a crappy camera in this thing, they should have just left the camera out completely so people wouldn't assume it was defective when they tried to use it. It might have resulted in fewer complaints.
I bought this cable from Amazon: https://smile.amazon.co
The description says -K200, the product photo shows a label on the cable that reads -K210
The cable was delivered just now. The label on the box says:
"SATA Cable for 320-15 330-15 NBX0001K210"
Lol.
The cable has the -K210 sticker on it, so I'm unsure if this is what I ordered... or if it's NOT what I ordered.... or if will even work.
The photo on the Amazon listing shows a purple SATA connector. The other cable listing has a black SATA connector. This one is black, but it has the sticker that the purple cable shows, and Blushift's photos of the working connector is also black.... so this is confirmation that it's the right one... or it's confirmation that this is the wrong one. Lol.
Sometime after supper I'll give it all a try. Frankly, I don't know if this is going to be a slam dunk or if there's no possible way this is the right item.
