Lenovo L340 vs Y540 Build Quality?

EvilNeo

I'm suggesting a laptop for a friend and so far we've stood between L340 and Y540
the uses of the laptop will be primarily programming, no gaming at all and there will be a lot of traveling with the laptop
the specs are almost the same as well as the price
i7 9750H / GTX 1650 / 16GB RAM
with the difference in storage
L340: 1TB SSD
Y540: 1TB HDD + 128 SSD
( i know what y'all thinkin, why pick such a high-end if no gaming at all but i'm looking for something really strong and our local market isn't very rich with choices)

i'm leaning towards the L340 because of the massive SSD storage and lightweight but i fear from the build quality, so i wanna get a second opinion please.

Build quality, cooling, performance, optional 144Hz etc...almost everything is worse in L340

L340 has only one memory slot. Dual chanel memory is way better go with Y540
