In 2014 I bought an Intel i5 CPU based Asus Notebook with 4GB RAM and 1TB HDD. With Win 8.1 OS running the Notebook ran perfectly. Then came the Win 10 free upgrade, post which the Notebook dramatically slowed down. It would take almost 1 - 1.5 mins to login to Windows with all background Apps loaded. Also any resource hungry Multimedia Apps would load extremely slowly.
After hearing from few of my friends and watching some Youtube videos I learnt that you can dramatically speed-up your system not by just upgrading RAM or buying a new Notebook, but by migrating your existing Notebook's OS from a traditional magnetic HDD to a SSD.
While from the videos looked liked the migration was simple, I must admit that with the correct information and software the migration from HDD to SSD is really very smooth and seamless. I have now upgraded to a Samsung 250GB SATA III 860 EVO SSD. Believe me it now takes me little less than 15 secs to see my desktop with all background Apps loaded. My Windows experience has completely changed and I feel as if I am using an Ultrabook.
