    Anyone have any reviews on the HP ZBook 17 G6 Touchscreen 3840x2160 screen?
    I'm guessing it is not a matte screen?
    Does it support a pen?

    Another question: the HP site says one of the SSD slots is not a customer serviceable part. Does the installaed first M.2 SSD put in a customer serviceable slot, or in the non-customer serviceable slot?

    I have the touchscreen G5 which is basically the same thing as the G6 except the motherboard config with the CPU and WiFi are different.

    The stylus I used for my old tablet works on the touchscreen, though I’m not sure about the more precise ones HP sells for the Zbook X360. It may be worth a shot to try if it’s at a good price.

    as for the SSD, the one that was preinstalled is in the non-customer serviceable slot as with the first two memory channels. You’d have to remove the entire motherboard to access it. HP has a series of YouTube videos that shows you how to do it step by step.
