    Looking for a new laptop for granddaughter

    Looks like about average laptop, but you haven't given us much info to go on. For all we know your granddaughter might be a 30 year architect and that computer would be totally unacceptable to do architectural design with. If your granddaughter is a 13 year old girl doing facebook and school work, it should be just fine.

    It looks like it has two slots for SSDs/HDDs? I would put a 512GB SSD or larger HDD in the second slot and use that one for an installed backup/recovery drive. It's easy to set up the second drive as bootable into a rescue drive like Kyhi's Recovery Tools, and have backup images of the primary drive saved on it for self-contained, onboard complete restore capability.

    My preferred brand is ASUS. But I bought a super tough (and heavy) desktop replacement type laptop for my wife that is an HP. That would not be appropriate for a girl in school but would be more for the executive type that is going to use It on a desk 90% of the time.

    That's the advice for you to take.
