If you don't see your Model listed which was the case for me Click on Instant Chat. I got a live human being.
I told her my Model Number was GWTN156-5BL and she said that the drivers are the same as GWTN156-2. I also had to give her my serial number.Lastly I asked about the SSD slots, and here's the response I got.
Main slot is PCIe/SATA with a max drive of 256
Secondary slot is SATA with a max drive of 256
For a max total of 512
Please post your, if you were able to stuff a bigger drive into either slot.
Good Luck

I like the feel of it, the metal feeling lid helps it not feel super cheap.
I use it for prepping 3d models for my printer, and it's very good at what I ask it to do.
BTW it does charge via USB c despite it saying data only.

I've run Norton's removal tool multiple times but parts remain.
The software suite still shows with the programs in the start screen, but is not when I go to Remove Programs. Nothing Norton is listed under remove programs, but something is still running hidden somewhere. Whenever windows update runs Norton Downloader tries to reinstall Norton. Despite obviously running, Norton Downloader does not show up anywhere I can find to uninstall it.
Right Clicking on the software suite gives the option to uninstall in the popup menu, but that just takes you to the remove programs screen, where nothing Norton is listed.
SMT is in AMD too. How about a sane discussion about SMT and security [thesai.org] before you go axing performance for marginal security increases for home users. Do your part to fight superstition in IT.
From my vantage point AMD is a better value. The GPU part of the equation you already agreed on as better value for AMD. For the CPU part the price should be more than enough reason to pass on Intel version of this laptop $429.00 vs. $349.00 AMD. Event if the price was the same, I would still go with the AMD due to GPU performance and Intel architecture issues affecting performance more so than AMD in all cases I have seen.
But feel free to have the last word on why we should buy Intel in this case

Memory is soldered, there's a second m2 slot that you can access without removing the entire back.
Any questions on the hardware side I can likely answer, I put linux on mine already so I can't answer anything about how it works in windows.
Any findings folks?
