Thank you so much for this useful video I have this laptop and I will upgrade it today 128GB SSD HD and 8GB RAM is enough for basic tasks I think

A family member found one of these in storage yesterday, forgot we had it. Windows 7 was corrupted and only barely worked in safe mode, whatever replacing hdd anyway. Had a spare super cheap chinese ssd lying around, and stuck it in. It apparently already had linux lite on it from some other project, and just instantly worked when turned on. After some use and updates and stuff fan was loud, laptop was hot. Fan was completely clogged, so unclogged it and replaced thermal paste, was so much quieter I thought I broke the fan lol. Battery is shot as expected. It can play 1080p youtube videos just barely with a slight hiccup every so often. It works decent for what it is, and I have the 8gb ram coming in the mail. Hope it makes some things smoother at least a little even with the lethargic cpu. But hey, it plays osrs, as does pretty much every other computer ever, so good enough lol

I have 16 gb ram and vertex 90gb ssd, it’s been running that way for over 10 years I’m guessing, probably longer. It’s good for what it is.

My Wife have this ACER AO756 with celeron 877 and its still alive right now. Problem is battery is dead, some keys not functioning. It currently have 500GB HDD and 8GB ram and it took a little over a minute to boot. Very Slow. But I will be upgrading this to SSD and hope faster boot times and browsing times as a back up laptop. HDD is speed is awful. I already ordered a replacement keyboard for this, cheap one. I didn't know it can have more than 8GB of Ram. I still would like to use this on the go for basic tasks and media consumption.

What is the maximum capacity of HDD disk that could be put in? Want to use it as a home NAS and install a 2.5" with 2 or 4 TB HDD disk. What do you think?
@JordanHandwerker Жыл бұрын
I would assume the Disk Space is uncapped, unlike Ram. I’d assume any SSD or HDD would fit as long as it’s SATA compatible the SSD I put in was a Crucial - MX500 500GB Internal SSD

Hello, I have Acer Aspire One D255e is it able to upgrade i mean Replacing processor or video card/graphics card?

I’m not sure unfortunately but I know with Laptops the processor is soldered to the motherboard, you might be able to research what motherboards will fit your laptop and swap the whole motherboard

Hi. I did just bought 8gb ram, plus with the original one 2gb. But what i want to know is, is it possible ti upgrade its processor from celeron to i5/i7? Thanks
@JordanHandwerker Жыл бұрын
Yes and No. the BGA process need special tools to solder it to the motherboard properly. It might be more beneficial to find a whole motherboard replacement with a better processor in it
