Is there any way in Excel to have one field that outputs something like this

The configuration you chose was "=A1".  It has "=B5" hard drives totalling
"=B5*750" TB of data storage.

I am looking for excel to dynamically replace what is in quotes with the
field / result of the calculation.  I didn't wan't to do separate cells, so
that the spacing was right.

Does putting this in your output cell do what you want?

="The configuration you chose was "&A1&". It has "&B5&" hard drives
totalling "&B5*750&" TB of data storage."
