The only two upgradable Chromebooks in history (my experience)
So recently I was doing some research and found out that the Acer C710 and the Lenovo Thinkpad X131e are the only Chromebooks with a SATA Drive Bay and 2 RAM slots. I found them on eBay in decent condition for around $30-$40 each and upgraded them both: 2x8gb (16GB RAM) and 512GB SATA SSD. In total for both laptop plus the upgrades, it cost me around $150 for each. Making these old early 2010s Chromebooks officially cheaper and more durable than any Chromebooks of today. I since then dechromed them and installed Zorin OS on both and gave them to my kids as starter laptops (Age 9 and Age 11). Not a bad bang for your buck
