Update to SSD 128GB on HP Pavilion X2 Detachable

[mayiathebee]

Hello guys!

My 32GB of hard disk on my Pavilion x2 detachable are not enough for updating Windows 10 and I was wondering whether I could upgrade to a 128GB SSD to solve my problem once and for all. Any ideas?

Need the full model number. It depends on whether it is a removeable drive that could be replaced and upgraded or an eMMC storage chip soldered to the motherboard and we need the full model number to tell that.

Thanks for your prompt reply! It is Pavilion 10-n100 x2 Detachable PC

No. The 32 gigs of EMMC storage is soldered to the board. There was an optional hard drive in the base unit as auxilliary storage but that cannot be added to a computer that did not have it from the factory. Different plastics.

In that case, what could I do to solve the Windows update problem? I have an external hard disk and an SD card but I cannot manage do the update using those external spaces.... I have already done the disk clean up, removed Windows.old and most apps and I have no user files at all...

I actually did a Knowedge Base article on it. Clean reinstall I am sorry to say is the only answer I found.
