Recommended means to speed up Laptop?
I have an Acer V5-571G-6401, and the hard drive can be a tad slow. I have uninstalled most of the crapware that came with the computer, and the hdd seems like the most likely culprit. so I'd like to speed it up a bit
As far as I can tell, I can go three ways:
1. Solid state drive. it would make space a little thin, but in reality I most likely won't need more than 100GB for a laptop, and I can put the old 500GB drive in an enclosure if I need more storage.
2. Hybrid drive. Would have the speed of a SSD and the storage of a HDD. Though my laptop needs a 7mm drive and I don't know if there are any 7mm hybrid drives avaialble yet.
3. faster HDD
I don't think a Readyboost drive would help a lot.
Any ideas? Advice?
