The Broken Tech Episode 6!
In this episode I double the RAM and swap out a really slow HDD for a nice and fast SSD in my Dad's brand new Dell Inspiron 3671. This machine had massive performance deficiencies right out of the box and for just a little bit of money, time, and effort we got those problems fixed!
Along the way, I had to figure out how to disable Windows BitLocker to allow Seagate Discwizard to duplicate the drives. Fun was had by all!
...and I did order the proper power splitter for the HDD/SSD, I just didn't think you guys needed to see me put it in.
