The most notable change for the Windows 10 May 2020 Update is the storage requirement, as from this version you need at least 32 GB to install. This makes sense, as Microsoft has added a new feature and the operating system needs more storage space. So before you get started you should consider that you need a larger 32GB hard drive + the space you need for your own files.
No Internet connection required for Windows 10, but it is recommended for updates.
On the contrary, the installation of Windows in S mode requires an Internet connection, as reported by company, not only for the initial installation, but also some possible upgrade to the full version of Windows 10.
