[QUOTE="harryb2448, post: 1842449, member: 42497"] The hard drive seems to be a 5400rpm hard drive that is slow as get out. You need to pop in an SSD. Also having only 26GB free space will slow it down enormously. If the 570+GB is all your installs on the hard drive, you need a 1TB SSD. You will need an operating system on a thumb drive or be able to use Recovery after you pop the SSD in. Whenever you get a used computer always erase and format the drive. Memory is soldered in, the hard is is not and is replaceable. [/QUOTE]
