Sounds like a decent deal De.

These days a 256 Gig drive is not very big . . . But I think it is likely you could add another drive internal. Or, if all else fails, plug in an external USB drive.

Once verified that it all works, and Windows is authenticated first thing I'd suggest doing is make a backup of the entire hard drive.

After installing all the software you want or need on it and you've got it all set up I would buy another SSD drive (same size or larger) and clone the existing drive. Check the cloned drive works as expected, then label and store the new drive.

I just bought three of these $100 "Mystery Computers". They're refurbs. I'm hoping that the ones I get (from lot #2) are identical. That will allow me to mothball two of them and to ghost from a failing computer to its replacement for many years to come.
