Hi all,
I’m wondering if I should upgrade my desktop pc [COLOR=rgb(124, 112, 107)](+/- 2011, maybe even 2009 or earlier), or simply buy a new one?
[COLOR=rgb(65, 168, 95)]–> At this moment [COLOR=rgb(124, 112, 107)]SIZE=2[/SIZE][COLOR=rgb(65, 168, 95)] I believe I could still use it for a few more years by upgrading: “[COLOR=rgb(124, 112, 107)]buy [COLOR=rgb(243, 121, 52)]new ssd + format c [COLOR=rgb(124, 112, 107)](or buy windows 10)[/COLOR][COLOR=rgb(124, 112, 107)][COLOR=rgb(243, 121, 52)] + [COLOR=rgb(124, 112, 107)]buy [COLOR=rgb(243, 121, 52)]2 hard drives for data[COLOR=rgb(124, 112, 107)] (one of those that will backup the others automatically somehow)[/COLOR][COLOR=rgb(124, 112, 107)][COLOR=rgb(65, 168, 95)]”, but maybe I’m wrong.
I’m new to pc troubleshooting/building/upgrading/…, and I prefer to keep things budget friendly, and I have no real idea what (type) ssd would be compatible with my motherboard.
