I reserved it for my Lenovo Yoga, but still haven't received notification that my convertible is ready for the upgrade.

Most issues I've heard of are installation errors, which I think resulted in people messing with the comp or not having enough memory space. In the event that you decide to upgrade, just hit the button and let it do its thing. It will take a bit of time, but it's a nice improvement from the 8 series in my opinion. If you're still rocking windows 7 and don't have a touch screen the update might not seem as impressive.

It's relatively small, I think in the 20 gig area. For most computers and laptops that's quite small, but the crazy tablet faze and those tiny laptops can make things more awkward. Easiest way to see if you have enough space is navigating to the task bar at the bottom left, and clicking the button for computer or my computer. You will see one or more storage types and generally the drive that says "C::" will be your default internal storage. It will says how much space remaining out of max storage size such as 300 gb of 500 remaining. As long as you have 50 gb or so I wouldn't worry in the slightest.
