if you can afford it - you will have a faster computer
also before you do any swap you need to look to see if you have your windows key on a sticker or you will have to use a utility to retrieve it from the BIOS
I checked and have the sticker. But it's impossible to tell the Bs from the 8s. I'll have to get a magnifying glass. I take it the key is necessary when reinstalling the OS from the DVD?
Will it really justify the cost if your PC starts up 10 or 20 seconds quicker aNd processes a webpage a second quicker WJ.?
I used to work with a load of people like you. When the bell went and work finished,
they'd all be sprinting like lunatics to get to their cars.
Ask any of them what they're doing when they get home.... "Erm I dunno"
If your brain worked like a super computer, like mine WJ then I'd say do it ,get that extra speed.
To be brutally honest WJ, after glossing over your latest input "how to make a thread title Bold";
your grey matter seems more like what they used in a Vic 20.
If I were you I'd be asking for advice on how to get the machine you currently have to "whoa the fuck up"
Baldrick. I want to know which SSD you would buy now.Tom's Hardware, Publish date Nov. 8, 2015: Best SSDs of 2015 - Solid State Drive Comparison Charts
evo 850
in whatever size you want
OK, you've vacillated re: size. Please choose for yourself.
a nibble is more than enough data space for you to store
on my laptop I have a 128gig emperor half size mPciE on which I have win7/mint and a evo 256g for programs and data
everything else is on a 1TB USB 3 external drive
you should buy what you need
If you torture data for enough time , you can get it to say what you want.
What store did you buy it at? Invade IT online has good availability and price: 500 GB 7790 THB, 120 GB 2790 THB, 256 GB 4350 THB, all better than the Amazon quotes. But Invade IT ships from overseas. Laxada.co.th doesn't have a good enough variety.
To review the installation:
1) completely backup all files
2) remove HD
3) insert HD into external case? Name of what to buy and process to install case to hold HD? (listen, i can find on youtube: just say "see youtube")
4) To install Windows 7 using the Custom option and formatting the hard disk
Turn on your computer so that Windows starts normally, insert the Windows 7 installation disc or USB flash drive, and then shut down your computer.
Restart your computer.
Press any key when prompted, and then follow the instructions that appear.
I have the Professional 7 installation DVD
Skip any or all these steps, if waste of your time and tell me the one thing I may be lucky to know or remember or is very important.
Chill...
500 GB probably best value , 1000GB ones are attractive but still a little expensive.
I have a 250, from when they were a lot more expensive .
I never have enough room on it , I'm always pissing about tidying it up, and
still my lovely FLAC vinyl and SACD fatties wont all fit on it..
its a few years since i did mine ,
I bought a SSD and an external case
put the SSD in the case plugged it in vis USb, transferred windows 7 and my programs, files etc files from my computer to the SSD.
then I opened up the Laptop took out the old hard drive and took out the SSD from the case and swapped them around.
then booted up from the SSD.
Guess a fresh install, if you have the Windows cd, would be a cleaner way to do it , but i had so many programs , that i would have to resteal and install ..

Thanks for your advice but I'm confused. I assume by add / remove the article is actually referring to the Control Panel option uninstall a program? When I list those programs, I find two by Lenovo: 1) Windows Driver Package 2) Energy Management. So to be on the safe side I did two searches of my C: drive using "solution" and "lenovo". Again there were no clues leading me to believe an application exists on my computer called Lenovo Solution Center.Originally Posted by baldrick
The article doesn't mention this possibility so I'm asking the head techie.
if it is not there then you don't have to remove it - seems the logical choice
