| 1st: I skinned all surfaces with a wolf
skin. Inexpensive and quite nice looking. Looks nice and protects all
surfaces. On Amazon, just type in laptop skins and your screen size.
Next switched to a bluetooth headphone.
Doubled the RAM from 8 to 16.
Then, and I think last, switched out my 2 internal hard
drives:
replaced the 500 gb with a 1 tb, for storage, best
overall choice (movies I watch are on my memory card, built in reader). Use
the old 500 gb for USB storage.
replaced the 125 gb with a 500 gb for the C drive.
which copied my operating system exactly, creating two hard drives, so the
346 gb D drive (partition that was created) is for my programs and a few
movies. Kept the old C drive as a back up.
As a thought: if you are using HD drives, change them
out to SSD's, the speed boost for loading programs is phenomenal.
Quite happy with the improvements so far and can't
think of anything else to upgrade? |
