    It doesn't even have sides.




    It was making weird rattly noise so we took them off a year or two ago.


    I think they're under a sofa or behind a fridge if we should put them back on.

    Is this back onto laptop problems, or still your hollow boasts about supposed sexual conquests who were probably hookers?

    buy a 2.5 inch 1 TB samsung 860 evo SSD
    Is this better than the shop sticking in an SSD with a bodgy copy Win 10 on it, and keeping me HDD as storage?

    The HDD C Drive has 180Gb of stuff on it, that seem to be installed programs and Win 7. When the SSD is connected with Win 10 on it, What happens to the current C drive that boots Win 7?

    will the PC auto-boot Win 10 from the SSD, and my HDD still has the C drive with Win 7 and all the program files on it?

    No, your SSD will become C:, the old C: will become D:, the old D: will become E:.
    Everything will be there but you will not be able to run your old programs from the new D:, you have to reinstall them on the SSD C:.

    just take the old HD out before you try to install windows on the SSD - you can put it back in after

    I don't take steal pics and edit them, so don't even compare what I do. You are one to talk.

    Win7 so it's not much use to clone the SSD from the harddrive.

    carked it.




    This is the badboy to remove, right?


    Will head to the shop tomorrow to get an SSD and new Windows.


    The wires that connect to the current HDD, will they be plugged into the new SSD, or will they still be free? (the SSD will have it's own wires connecting to the whatever?)

    Some items saved on the current desktop, when I reconnect the HDD, will still be there, somewhere in the new D drive?


    Should I get anything else while there. New motherboard?

    The 8Gb of Ram seems fine.
    The video card does 1080p on the 55 inch TV.

    Can only think of upgrading the motherboard.


    Would a new motherboard do much combined with the SSD, or just keep the old one?

    Or a new processor?

    Forget the name of the processor, beings with A.

    Maybe get an i3/5/7? to go with the SSD, or not really needed?

    The RAM probably needs replacement with a new motherboard. Maybe a new CPU only, if the motherboard operates with a faster one. But really, changing drive c: to SSD makes a huge difference. Try that first before you do anything else.

    How long is a string?
    You have not told us what you have so how can we know if a new motherboard will make it lightning fast?

    Start with the SSD and Win10 and see if you're satisfied with the speed.

    It's kinda rectangular in shape. If that helps.

    Unless I'm looking at something else.
