Introduction
The instructions include the following upgrades:
- Replacement of the CD drive with a hard disk tray
- Replacement of the installed hard disk with a Sata3 SSD
- Expansion of the working memory
These upgrades can usually be carried out by non-experts. Further upgrades, for example to the processor, are possible in this model, but require more specialised knowledge and are considered to be more complex.
What you need
-
-
The locking screw for the drive is located next to the opening for the installed hard disk. Once this screw is removed the drive can then be pulled out of the side of the laptop.
-
The drive can be replaced by a caddy into which a 2.5" hard disk (or SSD) is inserted. SSDs offer an advantage in terms of speed, but are by no means necessary. Suitable caddies are available from specialist retailers or online.

The hard disk is located under this cover. This can be replaced with a SATA3 SSD to increase the speed of the laptop.

These are basic upgrades that can achieve a noticeable increase in performance at low cost. Additional upgrades are possible (e.g. upgrading the CPU, replacing the thermal paste, changing the operating system), but require prior knowledge or research.
