Thinking of buying a second hand Elite Desk small factor to throw Linux on. I’m worried about the HP firmware-bios thingy. Does it call home? Can I disable calling home somehow? Can it have access to my hard drive info ?

This sounds like a privacy concern. Maybe one of the privacy communities will have a better answer.
You’re worried that the bios will ping hp and hand over info, is this something that you have info on?
