Speed up your PC with an SSD Solid State Drive. Many PCs and laptops don’t have SSDs, for a couple of reasons: Solid-state drives use to be really expensive, and computer makers often charge hefty mark-ups for upgrading to an SSD. Fortunately, SSD prices have plummeted in recent years.  On most all of our new laptop and desktop we recommend SSD’s over HDD Hard Disk Drives as they are 10 times faster and more reliable

What types of upgrades can you do?

Memory

Adding more memory will enhance system performance at a low cost. We work with the world’s leading memory suppliers to identify the correct part for your machine.

Drives

If you find you’re running out of hard disk space, a new disk drive with more storage space can extend the life of your computer or laptop. We recommend an upgrade to an SSD Solid State Drive for your main drive over HDD Hard Disk Drives. If you do a lot of work with photos and videos, you may want to opt for an HDD as you can get a larger drive for a lower price. It’s best to have your operating system running from and SSD for a variety of reasons.

Backups

Your data on your machine is more valuable than the hardware. You do need a solid strategy for backups. We will help you determine the most appropriate backup strategy. Then choose the right hardware and software upgrade to suit your needs.
