Can he download stuff like a regular hard drive where you get 256gb of space or is it like a cloud service or something?

    But can he store the same amount on an SSD as a regular Hard Drive? I ask because Chromebooks want you to use the cloud and shit like that.

      256GB is 256GB. It doesn’t matter if it’s a HDD or SSD. The SSD will be faster though.

      That depends on what programs come preinstalled on the laptop, not on the type of storage. 256 GB on HDD are the same size as 256 GB on SSD.
