I have used Windows from those eMMC and they are far faster than any mechanical drive. Those normally come with 128GB eMMC storage with one SSD slot. I have experience with some Chinese brands like Chuwi, aldocube and used laptops with their 7th Gen Y series Laptops. But the sustained performance and the Random R/W speeds are far faster than any mechanical drive and it feels far snappy because the way Windows 10 and Windows 11 are designed (Solid State Storage in mind). It has max read speed around 250 MB/s and max write speed around 130 MB/s which is not very faster than the fast 7200 RPM HDDs with 128MB Cache ,in paper. I think I did mention it in the secp section. You can easily try Chrome OS Flex from a USB drive to do the testing 1st. Just create a USB Restore disk in case you want to revert back to Windows. I purchased that from Dell Refurbished Store at $300 with 1 Year warranty.So, pretty solid way to have a very powerful Chromebook. After some research, finally able to made Chrome OS Flex work on that with everything working. I do have an old Dell Latitude 5285 tablet with core i7-7500U dual core CPU, 16gb ram and 256gb SSD, still plenty fast compared to these budget Chromebook and Windows tablet. Try using Chrome OS Flex on this, good experiment actually and good way to utilize older windows laptops and tablets. The keyboard isn't exceptional but it's pretty good for being as thin as it is. The battery goes for 8 hours easy, even 2 years into owning it. It makes for an absolutely amazing comic reader and media consumption toy. I'm very nearly willing to replace it with this model just for that. By far my biggest problem with it is the lack of expanded storage. I have the old Lenovo Chromebook Duet and I love that thing. ![]()
