Speed up your computer with SSD

upgrade hdd to ssdIf you have a computer with only a mechanical hard drive inside and it’s getting too slow, upgrading to an SSD is a cheap and simple way to get a big speed increase. Traditional hard drives are mechanical devices that on the inside look like mini record players. They can be damaged by bumps and drops. A typical hard drive speed maxes out 120MB per second.

An SSD drive uses memory chips to store your information. There are no moving parts so vibrations, bumps and drops do not damage an SSD. Most SSD drive speed maxes out at 550MB per second.

SSD speed increase will help with the following;
Starting your computer and opening programs
Opening multiple webpage tabs and windows at the same time
Photo and video rendering programs like Photoshop and Premiere
Music editing and DJ programs like Audacity and VirtualDJ
