If you have a SSD, be sure to do regular backups. That flash ram has a limited number of write cycles.
Probably about as fast as Windows 10 on a 4 year old computer... I like how all this "new faster" junk is slower than a Windows XP computer, all the memory and processing to try to figure out what you are going to do really slows down things when it's wrong 90% of the time... I miss XP... it was dumb enough that it was easy to figure out what it would do. At work I occasionally print word documents to a PDF, and Win 10 keeps the printer settings similar with all programs so when I go to print a PDF on the printer I walk to the printer only to realize it's trying to print a PDF... from a PDF...
I have 1mbps internet at home, cloud storage and windows updates and all the modern bandwidth happy websites drive me BONKERS...

My hard drive/USB adaptor quit on me after I tried the wife's old Dell's HD on it. May have been shorted out or whatever. Put another HD on it that I'd read before: had been erased. Would not read it. Adaptor is history. Don't really need it any more.
Looking to take apart these 2 HDs. Need a T6 driver. Ordered on. Couldn't get onto the screw heads with pliers. Want to see what they look like and can destroy them more thoroughly if I get the case off.
