Frequently asked questions about this product

Is Windows installed on this Asus ExpertBook B5 B5605CCA-MB0172?
No, it ships with FreeDOS, without Windows. Plan for your own licence or a Linux distribution before first use. This is a common configuration in companies, where the IT department deploys its own image on each computer.
Can the memory in this Asus ExpertBook B5 B5605CCA-MB0172 be upgraded?
Yes: the 16 GB of DDR5 is fitted as 2 × 8 GB in accessible slots, and the machine is stated to be expandable. That is one of the criteria that sets this professional range apart from ultraportables with soldered memory.
What SSD form factor does this Asus ExpertBook B5 B5605CCA-MB0172 use?
An M.2 2230 drive of 512 GB in PCIe 4.0 — a short format, more compact than the more widespread 2280. It is a decisive detail when buying a replacement drive: the two are not interchangeable.
Does this Asus ExpertBook B5 B5605CCA-MB0172 have an RJ-45 network port?
Yes, a Gigabit RJ45 port is built in, something most recent 16-inch laptops have dropped. There is also a microSD card reader. For wireless, the machine has Wi-Fi 7, the latest generation.
How do you unlock this Asus ExpertBook B5 B5605CCA-MB0172?
In two ways: with the fingerprint reader or by face, using the infrared webcam compatible with Windows Hello — once the operating system is installed and your fingerprint enrolled, since the machine ships without Windows.
Can this Asus ExpertBook B5 B5605CCA-MB0172 withstand the rigours of travel?
It is stated to be MIL-STD-810H certified, the battery of military tests covering shocks, vibration, humidity and temperature extremes, in an aluminium chassis. That is the level expected of a business laptop that travels.
What ports does this Asus ExpertBook B5 B5605CCA-MB0172 have?
Two Thunderbolt 4 ports that handle display and charging, two USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 ports, an HDMI 2.1 output, an RJ45 network port, a microSD reader and a headphone/microphone combo jack. Complete connectivity, with no need for a docking station.
Is this Asus ExpertBook B5 B5605CCA-MB0172 new and under warranty?
Yes, it is new and sealed, covered by a 3-year warranty — the level expected from a professional range — with the purchase invoice serving as the warranty document. It weighs 1.78 kg, charges via 65 W USB-C and has a backlit AZERTY keyboard.
