HP THIN CLIENT T520
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi,

i have 12 Thin client T520s i want to upgrade to iot w10e
I read the image is around 20GB and the default ssd is 32 GB, and that 64 GB upgrades were suggested.
Does HP have a certified brand that is guaranteed to work and not be disabled or disrupted by a future update?

I looked over your specs...so you have a M2 slot...I dont seem to find either is a SATA SSD or a NVME one...

Other than that...feel free to use any brand of SSD's

Hi,

the problem is my IT manager had an incident occur a couple years ago, we bought new laptops from HP,  installed additional ram. The ram worked fine, until we did a bios update like a year later, and for some reason that ram was no longer accepted by the board.
They had to go out and purchase ram a second time. When dealing with a large company that can get quite costly. 
So i need to make 100 percent sure that will not occur with the ssd if we choose to upgrade these.

Ahh i was misinformed. The M.2 installed on the model i have in the lab is 16GB ssd..

I saw an article on how to stop the bios key check for the OS when using a ibr image.
It did not work, but it was for thin client 620s not 520s.
Does anyone know a work around to get an ibr win10 iot image installed for lab testing before we buy the license upgrades?

This was the article.
