My best guess right now is that this model isn't really available yet, because of shortage issues.
The official model datasheet clearly states that this model has up to 1 TB storage. It also states that dGPU can be up to a 3050 Ti, and that RAM is 6400 MHz. And yet currently on the website the 3050 Ti isn't available, and the RAM is only 4800 MHz.
Here's a datasheet excerpt:

I understand that :) However, it seems that this same laptop is being sold with 1 TB SSD in the US : lenovo dot com /us/en/p/laptops/ideapad/ideapad-500/ideapad-5-pro-gen-7-(16-inch-amd)/len101i0049
This is strategy: always offer products with flaws so that they do not become too good. Rather save a few pennies (or add crapware and craplabels) to earn more per sold item. It is beyond the manufacturers' imagination that, in all respects, good products would generate more income.
Hi. I'm interested in this laptop, but surprisingly in Lenovo's website 512 GB SSD seems to be the only option. No 1 TB possible, unlike most other Lenovo laptops. This is really weird since this is supposed to be a mobile workstation with Rembrandt "H" CPUs.

Is this a bug? Can this laptop be ordered with a 1 TB SSD?Thank you.
