I've never had a hard drive fail on me. That includes a 2008 core2 |
| 6 |
duo that I shut down last autumn. Web surfing was getting painfully |

slow, and really large spreadsheets were dying in 3 gigabytes of ram, |
| 8 |
but otherwise it still worked. 256 G SSD is not enough for me now. |

now, but who knows about my future needs. |
