    Hi
    MS tell me my stream doesn't have any storage and it was made for browsing and email, so I cant add storage to it. HP tell me my computer doesn't exist.

    Is any of this true, surely once I have a port I can use external storage?


    TIA

    Buy a 32GB model did we? Not worth €20 to be honest.

    I'm not trusted to do that, centralised purchasing did. But now I'm stuck with it, will it work with external storage?

    This was bought by a company/org? Whoever runs IT needs to find a new career tbh.

    A faceless person in our org, but as its mostly taxpayers money and they aren't struggling to use them........, I'm sure they looked good on paper.

    FMI, is it known by "computer heads" that its a piece of crap?

    If it runs windows at a bare minimum the system drive should be 64GB, personally I'd reject anything under 128GB.
