That is because the HP Stream "notebooks" don't have hard disks.

 

They have an eMMC flash memory chip that is soldered onto the system board. 

 

The eMMC chip effective acts like a hard drive, but at 32GB it is very low capacity.

Is it possible to get one that has more space? it only has 28 gb in total not 32

HP Recommended

The best option would be to add a 64 GB micro media flash memory card for storage. 

 

Unfortunately, you are stuck with the 32GB eMMC chip. It is soldered in and not upgradeable.
