Hello! I'm interested in buying a new SSD on a 200$ budget, looking into upgrading from a 500gb harddrive...
Just some questions I have: Should I keep the 500gb hd to use for extra space?
Will installation of the SSD be like a normal harddrive?
Will a SSD be compatible with my setup?
Thanks for your help in advance, I will give some basic information on my setup.
