Hello Tyler:

Thank you for the recommendation. I have some questions for you:

Is the laptop you have, the top of the line for that particular model.;

Is the CPU, an AMd or Intel

What is the speed of the CPU;

Is the HDMI the only means to connect to an external monitor;

How many USB ports does it have: Are they all USB 3.0;

Does your machine have a US Keyboard layout? Does it have a numeric keypad, If so, can you use the JAWS desktop commands, both with and without the insert/jaws key;

What version of Windows 10 is installed;

How many 3.5 sockets are there, for earphone/speakers, external microphone and line in

Did you buy it on line, if so, will you please post the URL;

and, if you do not mind disclosing the amount, how much did you pay for it because, I want a laptop which is going to last me for several years, maybe for the remainder of my life.

Thanks in anticipation.

Hi,
You'd be in the market for a ggaming laptop, which most likely meets your
needs.
I own a Lenovo thinkpad x1 extreme which can hold 2 solid state drives. Note
that a 1 tb solid state drive can now be found for less than $100 - and the
speed is so very worth it. So in theory, you could have 2 1 tb drives
installed in there. I'm not sure what your budget is - but it's a very solid
machine that will last me for years to come. The keyboard is absolutely
fantastic, the build quality is top notch and it's very, very serviceable.
Thanks

Hello everyone:

I am looking for either a brand name laptop or one I can build myself or
have built for me, which has room for not only the system hard drive but
also has an additional hard drive for data.

I want the speed of an SSD drive and an HDD drive for storing my data files.

I have looked on the internet for a laptop with this configuration, with no
success.

Any ideas?
