Coincidentally I have this exact model (9350 non-developer) and it runs (Ubuntu) Linux great.
Laptop is completely silent, all the hardware runs flawlessly, battery life is after 5 years still pretty good, just overall great experience.
I honestly don't remember if I had to at some point disable something in BIOS ...
- voltagex_ 6y agoI have it too. The battery is shot after 4 years (?) but lasts quite a bit longer in Ubuntu. It's had coil whine as long as I had it, the supplied Toshiba NVMe drive died and I've also replaced the Wi-fi card with a mostly sane Intel 9560. If you're using a SATA drive with the default UEFI settings, Linux will see the drive. If you use a PCIe drive, it won't until you set it to AHCI mode. Edit: oh and Windows frequently wouldn't recognise the USB-C port unless you had something plugged into it during boot.
