[QUOTE="MARTINSR, post: 1640171, member: 207336"] First let me thank you, second I want to make it clear just how stupid I am, I had to google "HDD". :D I can replace the floor, quarter panels and frame rails in a 2014 Lexus and not thing a thing of it, but this stuff is just not in my wheelhouse. :D Thanks so much for helping me out. I replaced the original HDD (:D) because it simply failed. As far as going to the slower one, I have no idea why, I guess it was a brain fart. Or being I know nothing, I simply didn't know. On the CCC what exactly is that? I have a "passport" external hd to protect me,is that what you mean? Craig, that makes sense to this bodyman's head that it's "swapping things in and out" like house cleaning, but only moving it somewhere else. I'll start with the RAM and go from there, thanks guys.
