I purchased four of these cables to use with external solid state drives. They have worked very well. I have only observed 10Gbps with my drives, because that is the maximum they will go - I have yet to get an external drive that is rated at 20Gbps. The cables feel solid and well made. They were a good buy.

configured in the Device Manager to serve as a stereo

Do I need a technician to set this laptop up. I'm not super technical but my previous laptop was a Lenovo. And I just do the basics. No games or stuff like that. Just email and favorite websites.

My sister has little tech skills, and she had no difficulty setting this laptop up. You should be fine. Just be sure to have your wifi id and password ready, as well as your Microsoft account id and password.

How long does battery stay charged

It will depend on how the laptop is being used, and on the power settings used. If you run it with the display screen at max brightness, you will run the battery out faster than if the screen is run at half brightness. If you are streaming movies you will use up the battery faster than if you are just reading emails or working on a simple document. The number given by the manufacturer is probably what is obtained under optimal conditions.

The new privacy shutter on the camera also lets you reserve complete control over your privacy in the home and beyond.
 

Can I add an external hard drive for more storage????

There are two very fast ports on this laptop that you can attach an external drive to. One option that is very convenient is to add a tiny button drive, often called a FIT drive. These extend only a tiny amount from the laptop, and can remain attached even in a sleeve or a case. Here is a link to such a drive that is very economical:

Is this good for gaming?

This laptop can really only handle very simple games, that do not demand much processing power or much in the ways of graphics.
