Might sound really stupid for this, but where is the hard drive on this motherboard? Was thinking of swapping it out for a 1tb SSD, but first I wanna know what I’m supposed to do, and where to put it.

    Just check the model specs. If it does not include a slot for standard ssd, then you can use the ssd via usb (just get an ssd 2.5 enclosure and put the ssd in it )

      I wonder if you could show me a single example of a manufacturer indicating what empty slots are inside of a computer on the specs page.

      You basically have to read reviews to find out what’s actually inside of any given laptop model. And even then, you get variations.

        Specs do show such information for laptops in manufacture websites mate.

        For example msi gf Thin GF63 12UDX (exact model);
