My cousin got a netbook with 32 gigs of storage. That got filled up only by windows updates to the point that there is only 1 gb left and there's no space left for future updates. Now is there a possibility to install windows on some high storage sd card and leave inbuilt storage untouched?

They are cheap netbooks that barely qualify for the term "computer" and they come with a 32GB SSD of sorts. Totally worthless.

 

NOTE: I no longer frequent this site. If you really need help, PM/DM me and my e.mail will alert me.

Yeah. He got it from isp as a gift. It's for browsing only, but windows is eating all the storage. It's Acer something
