eBuyer daily deal. Seems like a decent budget laptop for the price. Usually laptops in this price bracket can be quite slow, but the 128GB SSD should keep operation nice and speedy.

Google about 2 seconds for: Welcome to HP Customer Support
HP 255 G5 Notebook PC - Specifications
Solid state drives M.2 SATA-3 128 GB SATA-3
So easily replaced once you can see it!
But the back is an absolute bar-steward to remove & replace.
One guy with a work bench took 7.5 mins to get the back off!
You have to remove the entire back.
The last one I did on my kitchen table was a compartmentalised Lenovo HDD > SSD swap - much much easier just removing a panel that's a bit larger than the HDD.
I would think twice after looking at this second video, where another guy takes 2.5 mins to get the back off.
But if you're comfortable with that, upgrading the SSD is easy.
Bloggers your warranty of course.

Cheap and flimsy are the these are going. Criminal when you compare something like this to an older (3-4 year) HP machine and notice the drastic nosedive in build quality. Tear off the base and you'll probably find a Hannstar logo, they also build Dell's machines.
