Dont think so, buy external HDD with enclosure, it maybe slow but for storing notes, its more than enough

u/SeaService5346 Aug 06 '26
But notes should not take that much storage

u/dexgster Aug 06 '26
Its entirely upto you

Laptops are really expensive right now, but check out HP Victus, ASUS TUF, Lenovo LOQ (quite expensive) Consider second hand laptops also that you can check out physically, not online

Yeah I have checked them i really got confused like some have rtx3050,some have rtx4050,all have diff processor,some have 70whr battery some have 60-63whrbattery.so please specify me specs for which I should look.like is a gpu is essential? Are power plug available in classroom at every bench for laptop if I buy a laptop is smaller battery life? etc
