For $100, it is a good deal.
There is a slot of m2 ssd drive.
I added "Crucial P2 500GB 3D NAND NVMe PCIe" and use it for the main drive.
I wish I can expand the memory and 4G of RAM is not enough. So far, I limit the tasks I use on this laptop. The laptop came with Windows 10 and it asks me to upgrade the Windows 11. I refuse to upgrade to Windows 11 yet because of the low RAM.
And it is not too slow, even it is using Celeron as CPU.
One more thing, you can install Ubuntu on it. But you lose the backlit keyboard function using Ubuntu.
It appears you can add an NVMe M.2 SSD, and with 256GB running $20 or so, that would be a major performance/storage upgrade.
The WiFi card can be upgraded, but there is only a single antenna wire, so add one or try it with just the "Main" connected to judge performance.

The Celeron N4000 family processors have about as much grunt as the last of the mobile/laptop core 2 duo processors, T8400 etc. Which sounds horrible but I use a fourteen year old machine with that architecture daily and it's great for youtube, web surfing, and my professional applications. Does great.
If you do not get an answer here, I would look toward Google. In my mind the RAM would be the only issue, but my kids play those games on some crummy low end tablets (admittedly not the Java or Bedrock version a PC runs) so the ceiling is really low.
