How to upgrade a computer hard drive How to upgrade an old computer to an SSD?

05 years of the machine, the original hard disk is almost not good performance, I am also a 05 year machine, the current hard disk speed is unstable, often jump from 10m to 40m, hey there is no compatibility problem with the hard disk, two hard disks can run together.

2.I haven't seen the real thing.,Judging from your memory, you should have added a 512 later,The original configuration is 256,You can open the lid of the case to see how many memory slots there are,If there are 4,It is recommended that you add a 1G,Because you often do**。 That super memory, 1G is the basic requirement, under the XP system.

My suggestion:1Before the hard disk upgrade, open the lid of the case to see if there is a SATA interface, how many PATA interfaces are there?

Choose whether to buy SATA's new hard drive or PATA, it seems that the new hard drive now does not seem to have PATA. Recommend Seagate, Maxtor. The most important point is to calculate whether the power supply power is enough, and the power supply power of the dual hard disk of the old machine is at least rated at 300W, which is more safe.

Note that it is the rated power, not the maximum power.

2.Memory upgrade depends on how many slots there are, more than 2 slots just add a 1g, if there are only two slots, replace the 256 plus 1g better.

Also upgraded memory, haha Good luck

Hard drives can't be upgraded!! Can only be changed!!

The current hard drive is very cheap more than 300 Hitachi 160g! (Price 1 month ago).

And the hardware can't be upgraded, and the upgrade means to change

1.Confirm the interface type of the computer: It is prudent to determine the interface type of the old computer and select the SSD with the corresponding interface.

2.Check if your computer supports SSDs: Older computers may not support SSDs, so you need to check whether your computer's motherboard supports them.

3.Back up data: Back up the data in the original hard drive, because replacing the hard drive will cause data loss.

4.Turn off your computer and disassemble the case: Unplug the power cord, disassemble the computer case, and find the location of the original hard drive.

5.SSD Installation: Fix the SSD with screws and connect the data cable to the power cable.

6.Boot settings: Restart the computer, follow the prompts to set the system boot mode to an SSD, and install the operating system.

Note: Before replacing the hard disk, you need to confirm the computer model and operating system type, if there is a problem after the replacement, you can seek help from the computer repair personnel.

Old computers have SATA interface, through this interface, the purchase of the same SATA interface solid-state, you can match the installation, the solid-state speed is affected by the interface speed, the computer interface Yes, the solid-state speed is greatly affected, only more than 200 speeds, faster than ordinary mechanical hard disks.

If the computer interface is yes, the speed can reach a speed of up to 450m s, which is close to the theoretical speed of 500 in solid-state.

If your old computer uses a solid state with an NVMe interface, you need to buy an adapter card installed on the PCI-E interface of the graphics card.
