minus-squarenotthebees@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 days agoI agree but idk what the hell Hitachi did with that hdd. It is the most responsive hdd equipped machine I’ve used. I might also shove 16 gb into it but idk if it will boot with 16 gb. It’s also from Sony so idk if I can find an up to date bios for it.

An SSD will make a huge difference
