There's an empty M.2 slot, which can accept a 2280 form factor "gumstick" NVME SSD (but not a SATA M.2). Spend $40 more to get one & make it as the system drive. It will greatly improve the performance of this laptop.
The 1TB "old" HDD could be kept and used as media storage…

AND: This is a 11th Gen Intel Tiger Lake processor, so you will probably need this also.
No drives were found during Windows Installation during Setup

Spent $414 with the SSD not including tax. It's a good buy.
Popped the SSD in. Ran the program then took old HDD out or format the old HDD for media storage. I just took it out as personal preference.

Just got the laptop and installed a NVMe Drive. The screw was in the mount already. It's in the laptop. Just buy the drive. nothing else is needed.
Also to simplify without having to watch the disassembly. Remove the rubber strips under the laptop, there are screws in there. Remove all the screws from under and start prying from the hinge area. The cover will open. remove the NVMe screw and install the drive. Screw in and cover on. All done.
This is not nice refreshed install. There is no "Hello Welcome to Windows" start up page. It logged right in. Computer already named. Not a fresh install. Makes me wonder what other crap is still on the drive... Not taking time to find out... I'm formatting that drive.
Firewall did immediately block some kind of upload once it was connected to the network.
Just have to hope whatever company these came from had good IT security practices... These are unformatted PCs straight from someone else.
