I've got an old Dell desktop computer I'd like to use to play my movies, music and such on a tv (I've replaced the Dell as my everyday use desktop with one I built with a friend). As an iPhone user, I have like to view most movies, listen to music and podcasts using iTunes. There's just one problem: the computer has a processor that's so outdated it can't seem to handle having my anti-virus software, iTunes with all my media and, all my other programs at once. I have gotten the occassional (not everyday but, enough to be worried) warning that my CPU is overloading or is overloaded. This only happens when I have installed multiple programs on the PC (I have since uninstalled iTunes and now I just use Netflix instead of having an installed program running media) and they are running at once (obviously, Norton runs scans automatically and, it seems most of the time when I am trying to view or listen to media). So, I am wondering, if I bought a second hard disk drive and installed iTunes on it (instead of the drive with Windows 10 and Norton) and, put all my media on that second drive, would that alleviate the problem of my CPU overloading? Or not? I want to try to figure that out before spending money on another drive.
