Upgrading laptop.

[xnoobftw]

Hi. I wanna find an upgrade to my laptop (which only has 4gb of ram and a 500gb hard drive)

Looking for an SSD (doesnt need that much space since it is for school work) and 2x4gb ram (Lappy only has 2 slots)

Budget 200sgd (or 160USD for you guys)

My laptop is fujitsu sh560. http://www.cnet.com/au/products/fujitsu-lifebook-sh560/

1. check if only one slot is used, it could save you some mony

2. buy a 120gb sdd from what ever brand you like there is not that much of a differenz that you would notice on a laptop

For what it's worth, look into a HDD Caddy.

They adapt your CD/DVD drive into a harddrive case. With that you can go with a small cheap SSD for OS/Critical programs, and still use the HDD for Data.

The cheapest 8gb kit DDR3 204Pin you can find at your stores.

A 120GB or 240GB SSD would be good. If you can move your media to a USB 3.0 hard drive, a 1TB should be too hard to find.

More memory is always good. Look on the manufacturers website, there might be some info on how much ram your laptop can take. Also if it is ddr2 or ddr3.
