Tiger Lake-U CPUs officially support 64GB RAM and the i5-1135G7 supports DDR4-3200 speed RAM so there is a good chance this laptop will take 32GB DDR4 SO-DIMM (but I doubt anyone would want >32GB on this budget laptop). Manufacturers tend not to confirm RAM sizes that they do not sell as a configuration/option (need thorough certification with various brands, etc). At least it has two SO-DIMM slots, whereas many other brands (Acer, Asus, Lenovo) love to solder one channel on the mainboard.
As others have found out, the empty 2.5" bay has caddy and cables included to mount a 7mm HDD or SSD.
USB-C is a strange omission, and Dell explicitly states the HDMI port outputs 1080p60 max, no 2K/4K.
I installed an SSD in the open drive bay, added a 16 GB ram chip, and installed Ubuntu server on the newly installed SSD so I can dual boot into Windows or Linux. Installing and running Ubuntu server has been flawless.
The Dell site specs say 16 GB max memory. I installed a Crucial 16GB DDR4-3200 SODIMM into the open slot and in both Windows and Ubuntu I can access all 24 GB. I would assume you could install two 16 GB for a total of 32 GB if you wanted.

So I am wondering... Is Windows 11 so much more intensive that despite 8GB RAM a user is given S mode as the default?
Thanks

Hmm bought the open box for $216 total. Should be better than what I'm using currently. The alternative was to buy a laptop for like $450. Currently using a cheapo Lenovo i3 which the display on it is just awful. Hopefully this one is better.
