2017 - Laptop with SSD+HDD


I’m looking for a laptop that has, say a 512 gigabyte Solid State Drive and a 2 terabyte hard drive. I’d also like it to have up-to-date hardware like a Kaby Lake CPU, and a 802.11ac wireless card.

Does anybody know of any laptops which fit this description?

Pretty new stuff. I'd think that some of the newest systems would have both room for a hard drive and M.2 ssd. Bet it wouldn't be cheap. I think MSI might have one.

Mr. Macintosh,

This list of Kaby Lake laptops may help you:

Since these laptops are very recent models you should be aware that Linux compatibility may be patchy at the moment, depending on the Linux distibution and kernel used.
