I want to upgrade a laptop that's 1 year old from the 500gb hard drive to a smaller samsung ssd.
Would this be ok to do?
Main goal is to increase windows startup time and other program startup times.
the hard drive is 450gb total and 399gb are free...only using 51gb. i don't expect that to change very much
the laptop is about a year old, running windows 7 has an intel i5 3rd gen chip
Very little data is stored on it and the laptop is mostly used for browsing the net.
Wondering if I could replace the 450 hard drive with the samsung 840 evo 120 gb?
would that provide enough room. I understand that the 250gb would be better but it's twice the price and this is mostly a secondary computer.
Not needing to receive the greatest performance boost, just a significant amount of it.
thanks for the help!!
