Hi, recently my aunty gave me a hp laptop(15-DA0072NA) and it runs very slow. It takes up to 2 minutes to start up. It has a 4 gb ram and runs in Celeron 1.1 GHz processor. What can I do to get it to run faster? Please help. Thank you

Its specs

It only has

  • Very slow Intel® Celeron® N4000 (1.1 GHz base frequency, up to 2.6 GHz burst frequency, 4 MB cache, 2 cores),
  • Slow 4 GB DDR4-2400 SDRAM (1 x 4 GB,
  • Very Slow 1 TB 5400 rpm SATA

Can you sell it and buy a new machine ? Otherwise you can

 

1. Replace 4GB of RAM to 8GB using compatible RAM such as

2. Replace 1 TB 5400 rpm SATA with a 2.5" SATA SSD using a compatible drive such as
