The Best Buy essentials 4-Port USB 2.0 Hub uses a single USB port to connect up to four USB devices. Just plug the hub into your computer, and the blue LED indicating light lets you know it’s ready for your devices. A 5V, 500 mAh port output delivers consistent and quick power, while a data transfer speed of up to 480 Mbps performs at the speed you need.
I have a wealth of items that need power via a usb port- fans, speakers, etc. This powered usb hub fills that need very well - and keeps my usb 3 ports free for items that need data transmission. It is a very cost effective tool.

Crucial - P3 1TB Internal SSD PCIe Gen 3 x4 NVMe
Basic bootup speeds won’t cut it — not at work, on the go, or in the game. But the Crucial P3 SSD is anything but basic. With NVMe performance that’s more than 6x faster than SATA2 and storage capacities up to 4TB3, the P3 leaves older storage technology in the dust. Get faster bootups, downloads and file transfers, and store all your files, photos, videos, apps, and games with room to spare with the quality and dependability you expect from Crucial.
I have an older machine that uses one of these for the system drive. It works so well, and is priced so well, that I purchased a second one to use for system image backups. I clone my system drive to this each month, to use as a backup. It is a fairly fast process, and provides a good way to recover if a problem develops.

Crucial - MX500 2TB Internal SSD SATA
Start your system in seconds, store up to 2TB of your irreplaceable files, and upgrade with a drive you can count on. Improve your system with the Crucial® MX500 2TB 3D NAND SATA 2.5 Inch Internal SSD, an SSD built on quality, speed, and security that’s all backed by helpful service and support. It’s worth it.
This drive was purchased to provide fast and reliable storage for my new gaming computer. The speeds I obtain are as advertised (see results below). I use this drive to store large files that I use intermittently. It does a very good job.
The CORSAIR MP600 PRO LPX PCIe Gen4 x4 NVMe 1.4 M.2 SSD provides high-performance storage expansion optimized for PS5, boosting your console’s storage by up to 4TB. PCIe Gen4 technology achieves lightning-fast sequential read speeds of up to 7,100MB/sec and sequential write speeds of up to 6,800MB/sec, so large game files load faster than ever. The M.2 2280 form-factor and pre-installed low-profile aluminum heat spreader enable the MP600 PRO LPX to fit directly into your PlayStation 5, while meeting all PS5 M.2 size requirements. Backed by a comprehensive five-year warranty, the MP600 PRO LPX delivers expanded storage and sustained high performance to your PS5 right out of the box.
I got this drive as an upgrade for my system drive in my new gaming computer. This drive is as fast as advertised (see my test results below). At the start of the test it was at 37deg C. At the end of the test it was at 51deg C, but it was back to 37deg C in just 4 minutes.
I had no issues cloning my system on to this drive using Acronis. I have had no issues running my new gaming computer with this drive in the 2 months I have had this drive.
This was a good purchase, and has enhanced the capabilities of my new gaming computer.

I do not see where the privacy feature for the camera is. Is it a button that needs to be pressed? Because I see nothing that covers the camera.
The version of this laptop I got from Best Buy does not have the sliding switch to put a physical screen in front of the camera. I believe this is the case for this version of the laptop for Best Buy. You can disable the camera in Settings, if you wish.
