Memory and Storage Upgrades

Memory and storage upgrades can enable you to do more, faster — with the computer you already have.

Upgrading your Random Access Memory (RAM) gives your computer more “working” space to exchange bits of data as it processes what you’re working on. A RAM upgrade is an inexpensive, easy way to boost your system’s performance a bit and give you the capability to run more intricate software – or more things at the same time!

Upgrading your storage drive (HDD or SSD) gives you more storage space for your programs, games, music, photos, documents, and videos. Modern SSDs are extremely reliable (far more than hard disks), and are much much faster, so they can help move that data around faster and make your operating system move much faster! See our “Hard Drives: Explained” article for more information.
