Thanks. Agreed, I have a Lenovo for work and it’s solid. Willing to pay more if quality is there. Any thoughts on Acer?

I mainly need the storage. I can spend $80 to $150 to upgrade to 1tb or spend $600+ on a new laptop. That’s why I was thinking saving some e-waste and using the Dell might be a better option because it has a better processor than my Asus.. My current laptop (the Asus) is 256gb and nearly maxed out.


Just by a USB hard drive.

I have one. I try to follow the 3-2-1 method for data backup.

Grabbed a Lenovo ThinkPad P14s w/ AMD Ryzen 7, 32gb ram, 1tb SSD for $365. Maybe slightly overpriced, but think I did good.
