The starting configuration comes with a 1TB SSD, and it costs $3,999. </p><p>When this device launches on the company’s website, potential buyers will be able to select the capacity they’d like the system to configure. </p><p>This <a href="https://www.techradar.com/news/best-mobile-workstations">mobile workstation</a> is scheduled to become available in Q4 2026, but higher capacities will incur more cost. </p><figure class="van-image-figure inline-layout" data-bordeaux-image-check ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' style="max-width:676px;"><p class="vanilla-image-block" style="padding-top:31.51%;"><img id="diM9tpwF2Lz85R8q85CT78" name="tr-g_news" alt="Google logo on a black background next to text reading 'Click to follow TechRadar'" src="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/diM9tpwF2Lz85R8q85CT78-1920-80.jpg" mos="" align="middle" fullscreen="" width="676" height="213" attribution="" endorsement="" class="inline"></p></div></div></figure> </article> ]]>
