Windows 10: Windows 10 on 16gb

I needed an mp3 player but an mp3 player with a screen bigger than 3 inches.
No luck finding one so I chose to buy a new 8 inch tablet with Windows 10 preinstalled for $55.00 which I will use and call an mp3 player and pretty well nothing else.
Makes sense, now I have a screen big enough to read.
After I clicked purchase I decided to go back and check the specs. lol
Only 16gb memory expandable to 128 gb.

Now what happens with Windows update will the 16 gb allow for any updates? And if not big enough capacity to do so what happens?
Thanks

:)

 

Memory upgrade with Windows 10

I recently bought a new ASUS computer with windows 8.1 installed. I upgraded to Windows 10.

I then installed 16GB of RAM. (up from 4GB). Windows> PC>Properties shows 16GB installed but only 8GB usable. BIOS shows 8GB installed. Spec sheet for the computer says it can be upgraded to

16GB. I don't see any way to change the BIOS. Any suggestions?

 

Nov Win 1511 update fails on small drives

I have the same problem, Toshiba WT7-C-101 with 16Gb SSD (C:\) and 32 Gb microSD card mounted as drive D:\ I have already a Windows 10 copy pn the tablet and I was not able to upgrade on Windows 10 Ver. 1511, beacuse of the 16Gb Limit on the primary drive
(C:\) Despite the fact, that I have enough free space on the drive D:\ I was not able to upgrade from Windows 10 onto Windows 10 Ver. 1511

 

It will handle normal updates but build upgrades are pretty much impossible without a clean install.

I I do not understand it being expandable to 128 GB - tablets normally have MMC drive which cannot be adjusted. I assume 128GB refers to an SD card for storage?

 

@cereberus, He probably means you can either expand it with MMC or purchase it with a higher storage capacity on board.


As it's a tablet @gbm97, it may be too much to hope for even updates to work unless it's running an embedded version (which I don't think exists yet?). On a 2 week old system, the windows folder is 20GB now after updates.

I think you're going to have a bad time even loading music, unless you can expand it with MMC. Even then it's not a stable platform for music playback. (MMC is easily broken)

 

Thanks, guess I'm a tad confused.
My new $55.00 tablet arrived.

It was listed as having 16 GB flash memory, but C drive reads 28GB. That's flash memory right?
Come with I GB ram, 1.33GHz

Updated to Creators update no problem.
Thanks

 

I`d say no, it`s a drive of some type.

Only 28GB yikes *Eek

Post a shot of Disk Management

 

Not alot but I purchased this tablet to use as an mp3 player and only that. Bigger screen than the 1.5 -2 inch little mp3 players.
With the 64GB SD card to hold the music it works very well.
Has 14 GB free of 28GB with Creators update installed.
Good enough for the price of a couple of large pizzas.

 

I've got a stick computer and a tablet both with 32GB eMMC "drives". They run just fine for what I use them for. Right now the stick computer is plugged into the minivan's entertainment system with a USB hard drive connected to play movies on the road.

The 32GB eMMC shows up like an SSD in disk management and is disk 0 in diskpart.
