Storage
The base variant of the laptop is equipped with 512GB of storage. The SSD reaches speeds of ~3258 MB/s during writing, and ~3017 MB/s during reading. The results are good but nothing spectacular. Actually, the 2021 variant was faster, due to the double SSD configuration.
Now, you get faster storage only if you buy the 1TB or 2TB variant.
