My 64 GB tab had somewhere near 36 GB free to start with. About 6.5GB IIRC is taken up for system partitions relating to recovery. And it has an micro sd slot.
Despite the lower capacities, I'd never trade a solid state boot drive for any amount of space in most contexts. I built my PC in 2009 or so using parts that were midrange a year earlier. A year or so ago, I replaced the boot drive with an SSD. The difference in responsiveness is extraordinary. For a general computing environment, there's no better upgrade.
