 ===== HD (Hard Drive) or SSD (Solid State Drive) and Slow PC =====
-For many years PC's were delivered with a Hard Drive. The electrical mechanical components in a HD contribute significantly, to the slowness of booting, loading a program and updates. In recent years computers are available with SSD. SSD is dramatically faster than HD. Computers with a HD can exhibit significant improvements in, booting, loading a program and updates, if the HD is replaced with an SSD. SSD costs have dropped significantly. If your computer is slow, an SSD upgrade will be easier on you bank account than a new computer. Today (June 4, 2019) a 250 GB SSD could be purchased for less than $60. It is not unusual for a new PC or laptop to exceed $400. Now it is August 23, 2019 and a 250 GB SSD can be purchased for less than $40.
