My brothers Chuwi laptop had major problems. Now he got a wal-mart gift card for the price he paid for the Chuwi. He is eyeing an HP laptop with 256gb ssd. Is that the same as a regular harddrive?

Can he download stuff like a regular hard drive where you get 256gb of space or is it like a cloud service or something?
You're viewing a single thread.
Others have answered your questions. Just wanted to point out that 256GB is not very big, depending on how much your brother wants to download (and how much of what he downloads he wants to keep).
He is a moviephile and some seasons of tv that is about it. He may play some fallout games but thats about it.
If he downloads a lot of movies that might get annoying, but if he's just streaming them from a Netflix app or something that's totally doable.
If he plays fallout idk how demanding that is to your disk, but games in general profit from faster storage. Movies usually don't as much.
If he plays a lot of AAA games that are bigger, his drive will get crowded real quick with 256gb. If it's just a few fallout games, he will be fine I think.
That said, 256gb is on the lower end of modern notebook hardware FYI, even on SSDs.
