RAM & SATA port

MIkel

Hi,

I would like to know if RAM is LPDDR3 or LPDDR4 as I have seen contradictory reviews.

I also would like to know if the additional SATA disk supports a SSD (120 GB SATA III) or if it only supports mechanical HDDs.

Thx!

MIkel

Great!
Thank you all for your answers. I'm already waiting for my unit to arrive!

The Intel Celeron J4125 processor can only utilize DDR4 or LPDDR4 memory, so it would have to be LPDDR4, not LPDDR3.  

It supports an SSD for add on storage.  I'm using a 500GB Samsung 860 EVO SSD with mine.

The reseller at Amazon says it only supports HDD, but we all know many times they don' t really understand the question :)

No doubt.  
I'm using my regular Ryzen based desktop right now, so I can't look, but it's using whatever driver the unit has built in.  I performed a clean install of W10 20H2 shortly after I set my GK55 up, so whatever driver that comes with is what the SSD is utilizing.  Orignally I was just going to use the SSD in a USB external enclosure I already had it installed in (it's about a year old), but I realized the read/write speed would be faster with it directly connected, so I went that way.

Hello.
The GK55 only supports up to 8GB of RAM due to CPU limitations, and does not support 16
