I’m starting to get back into the swing of tech at large, and found a business laptop that fits my needs for a portable low power emulation device. When I look to buy it secondhand, because I don’t intend to burn money or the environment unnecessarily, I find dozens of extremely cheap listings without drives. Are these secondhand from businesses removing and drilling the drives or is there something else going on?

7th gen is from 2017. Most corporations are on a 4-year cycle, so have already been replaced twice since then. Very few are motivated by the Win11 requirements.

they should be on a cycle, not all companies are. it’s very common to see a lot of smaller ones not do this
