Can he download stuff like a regular hard drive where you get 256gb of space or is it like a cloud service or something?
minus-squareThePowerOfGeeklinkEnglish8•1 month agoYes it’s the same storage size (SSD vs mechanical doesn’t change that). But I would caution to get a larger drive. From my experience, 256gb gets pretty limiting. I would go with at least 512gb.
