Questions about this item

Does the USB 3.0 Type-C port carry video and data together?

The USB 3.0 Type-C port supports video output and data transfer simultaneously, letting you connect a monitor and peripherals through one cable.

What clearance is needed around the 14.0 inch chassis for the side ports?

The HDMI, RJ-45 and USB 3.0 ports sit on the left and right edges, so allow a few centimetres on each side for cable bend radius and plug depth.

Which screw must be removed first when swapping the 512 GB SSD?

Remove the single M.2 retention screw that secures the drive; the SSD then tilts up and slides out without touching any other fastener.
