I would like to know if there is any way I can replace the internal hard drive (eMMC 32GB) with a bigger one. A memory of 32GB is not enough, and Windows is no more able to do the update.
Thank you

Unfortunately NO, the eMMC chip is soldered to the motherboard. You can store user files/data on SD (or microSD) card. Please use the following instructions to update Windows
Regards.

No, the eMMC is not soldered, there is a cable connecting the eMMC module to the motherboard (please, check attached picture).
I would like to know if there is a possibility to find a sort of adapter cable to convert that 10 pin port into a SATA port and connect a standard SSD or HDD to the SATA port.
Or, second option, if there is a bigger eMMC memory (64 GB or 128 GB) available to replace the 32 GB eMMC installed on my laptop, with the same 10 pin connection.
Thank you,

Hello,
Instead of changing the current emmc, there is the possibility of adding a hard drive or an ssd with this trick: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OsQpPkb_I1w

I saw that video some time ago and I thought it was the solution... But the notebook on that video is a little bit different than mine, cause I don't have that SATA connection available on the side of the motherboard.
But thanks for your advice.
