My grandparents have an old lappy which is running very slowly, specifically a Sony Vaio vgn-fs315m.
The basic spec is:
- Intel Pentium-M Centrino 740 Processor 1.73GHz
- 512MB DDRII SDRAM
- 80GB Hard Drive
- NVIDIA GeForce Go 6400 with TurboCache supporting 128MB
I’ll do the easy bits, upgrade to 2GB of RAM, remove unnecessary start up apps, updates, etc., but is it also worth swapping out the HDD for an SSD, or is this laptop too old to benefit?
