I should add that when doing a clean install you can actually reformat the insternal Sandisk express cache disk and use for anything you like. It's only 7-8 Gb so as I said above, it's ideal for Windows' pagefile.sys.

The BIOS on these machines has a bug which when used with UEFI boot can fill up the chip and brick the PC. So avoid using UEFI .
(Done that with a Linux distro and UEFI - had to replace the motherboard.
Samsung will not aknowledge this bug and has not refunded me)
I replaced the hard disk with an SSD and installed Windows 8.1.
The small internal SSD I used for Windows swap (pagefile.sys).
All of Samsung's special drivers for function keys work well under Windows 8, but not with Windows 10.
The machine now boots in about 10 seconds and is still one of my best laptops.(2020)

And absolutely lousy wi fi card with  constantly dropping connectivity   I just recently bought Chronos 7 with Intel wi fi card, what a rubbish. I like the notebook but   connectivity  drives me mad. My work laptop with broadcom  card works fine so I have a comparison...

Maybe you should consider the not detachable battery as a minus, because the constant charging while the laptop is plugged in (Li-polymer batteries have a fixed amount of cycles) and the high temperature (i.e while gaming) both shorten the lifetime of the battery quite drastically.

I have the 700Z3C and can't get it to wake from sleep via my wireless USB mouse or keyboard.  Anyone have any answers??
