[Microcenter - Shippable] Evolve III Maestro - $59.99
Evolve III Maestro 11.6" Laptop Computer - Dark Grey; Intel Celeron N3450 1.1GHz Processor; 4GB LPDDR4-2133 RAM; 64GB - Micro Center
Get it now! The only group harder on electronics than the military are elementary school students. When it comes to durability, the Maestro E-Book edition brings portability and the peace of mind of knowing it can handle a few bumps along the way.
kinda crap specs and the RAM isn't upgradable but $59 ¯\(ツ)/¯

You should be able to remove the LTE module. And put a 2242 ssd in it. Or mod in a bigger one.

if the EMMC is terrible (probably is) I'm going with a 2280 🙃

That is what i would do. Because it might not fit double sided 2242's. And i haven't been able to find single sided 2242's larger than 64gb.

someone from that same Reddit thread said this 2242 fit/worked, only 120GB though.

as long as it's single sided it'll work. I just grabbed a 2242, I tried to slap in a 2260 I had laying around but it was double sided and didn't fit
the thicccness of the drive is the issue, not that a larger capacity doesn't exist.
better a liar than a dumb Avacado

It never goes over 10w without that in my testing with cinebench. I have the v2.

I took some more photos while installing the SSD. Here I removed the battery and cellular modem.

The SSD in place of the cellular modem held with electrical tape.

These are the CPU settings I'm running. I just turned random things on and upped others. Let me know if you have any recommendations for performance tweaks.
