Want to Sell laptop or More RAM

Hello all yes that is what my title says but I don’t want to sell my laptop off of LTT forum. However, I have the Dell Inspiron 7000-7576. I have had it for a bit one year and let me tell you it’s slow. I have reinstalled Windows but that did nothing. I still use it but it’s annoying. I want to sell it so I can use that knee too but parts to build a PC. But do I just need to but more RAM or should I just sell it? I like it it’s great but I still want to keep it. So is all I need is more RAM(I have 8GB in it which can be upgraded) or should I sell it. If I do sell it how much should I sell it for. I would think not much because it is so slow but I guess it’s whatever. So someone tell me if I should just get more RAM or sell and how much to sell it for. (https://www.amazon.com/Dell-Inspiron-7000-7567-i5-7300HQ/dp/B06WLMJPC3)

Put in an SSD. That laptop should still be plenty fast for basically everything.

I don’t think you can? Can you? But I don’t think that will fix the problem. It’s not like moving files it’s lunching stuff up and having choke and other tabs and applications not loading or taking 15 minutes to load

An SSD makes a world of difference in any system. Considering how inexpensive SSDs are nowadays, there's no excuse not have one.

My suggestion is do the SSD first.

We sold one earlier this year. We sold it with an m.2 SSD inside which we added. We also upped the RAM to 16GB as a 256GB m.2 SSD and RAM sould be under $200.

You can transfer those parts to another laptop if you sell this laptop if the performance isnt as good as you expected

So I see that SSD I should do and I opened up the back and I can put it looks like I can put two ssd and another stick of ram. But if I did put two ssd and another ram stick would I need to do anything on the laptop it’s self?

So I was looking around and most was Curial. Which I know is great. Did you see my images. There is two extra ssd slots. Should I use both and have two 250gb or one with 500gb. Also if I did put more storage would I need to do anything on the laptop itself before I upgrade?

There is only 1 free SSD slot (M.2). You're looking at MX500? Of course bigger capacity = better

 

You need to install Windows in the SSD. Either do a clean install or clone (I prefer clean install)

I would do a clean install but I pretty sure there is two or I’m just blind

I suggest a Samsung M.2 NVMe SSD, another matching stick of 8GB of RAM. If you go with a 500GB Samsung 970 EVO (or a EVO Plus) M.2 and 8GB of RAM total cost should be right around $185-$200

A good SATA M.2 will be good for most users. Much cheaper too

It's good, but that SSD is complete overkill. Get a 500GB max and a 1-2 HDD.
