After applying SMB 1 to: Turn Windows features on or off & RESTARTED ALL OK I Can access the network drive

Follow the procedure below and check if the problem persists:

1. Press Windows, type Turn Windows features on or off and click on it;
2. After opening it, scroll to the end of the list of resources;

while it's great that you want to learn about various subjects

i believe "SDH" previously touched on this in a previous post you made in regards to posted questions about how to get answers yourself, if not try the suggestions below

reading the HP "quickspecs" and user or service manuals will answer most if not all your questions (#2/3/4) on the systems internal expandability

a simple google search using keywords on item #1 "difference between windows 11 pro vs windows 11 for workstations" will likewise answer your question on this subject same for using this forums "search" feature where i and possibly others have previously answered this question
