How to increase hard/flash disk??

[danielkelsey411]

I have Acer Asoire one cloudbook 11.It has 32 GB of eMMC. I am not able to upgrade my Windows 10 due to lack of space.How can I do it?or how can I increase the size of storage drive.

You can't, is the basic answer. A fresh install of Windows 10 could work, but be aware that that will wipe everything you have. Are you doing a Windows 10 update, or is it currently running some other OS?

You cant, the memory and the emmc storage is soldered directly onto the motherbaord.

Most all ultrabooks are completley unupgradeable, even more so the cheapo models.

A "techie" has informed me that a solution is to insert an SD card (San disk ultra 128Gb micro SDXC class memory card. What say you?

Thats a way to increase your storage for files, etc.

You cant run your OS from an SD card (at least not on windows PC like the Aspire).
You CAN install your programs to the SD card but this will be very noticably slow due to low 4k (as in random, nothing to do with 4k TVs) read/write speeds.

Thank you for your thoughtful suggestion. I MAY try the Sandisk SD card and install my programs on it despite the slow read/write speeds. I will let you know the outcome should I go ahead with this.

We wouldnt just beecause we would find running a 32gb windows partition and programs on an SD card as an unbearable option.
If you want to then it is your computer, you wont damage anything doing so.
