How to Justify Upgrading Your Computer

If you’re using a computer that has a mechanical, spinning-disk hard drive, and you want it to be faster, I strongly suggest getting a Solid State Drive (which, from this point forward I will refer to as an SSD).

I upgraded to an SSD years ago. I told Missy many times that I wanted to upgrade her computer with one, but she wasn’t interested. Something about not fixing what isn’t broken.

Then, one day, she complained that her computer took too long to boot up.

I said, “We should get you an SSD.”

She asked, “Would that make it boot faster?”

It still makes me smile when I remember the look on her face as she watched my computer boot up and shouted, “Are you shitting me?!”

She has had an SSD ever since.
