These days, time<\/span><\/em> is the most important thing. As the saying goes, “Time is money.” That being said, most people don’t want to waste time waiting for a computer to load or power on or anything like that.<\/p>\n

So… In the interest of time <wink>, allow me to cut to the chase…<\/p>\n

Odds are that you have something in your computer called a hard drive.<\/p>\n

There are other components of the computer, but they’re all super fast. The slowest component of your computer is more than likely your hard drive.<\/p>\n

An upgrade from a hard drive to a solid state drive can speed up your computer by about 10 times<\/strong>. More good news about it… The upgrade can take as little as an hour (sometimes less)!<\/p>\n

This means that when you turn on your computer, it will start up 10 times faster…<\/p>\n

Imagine turning on your computer and 10 seconds (or less) later, it’s ready for you!<\/p>\n

Imagine not having to wait for 30 seconds to a minute for Excel, or Outlook to load.<\/p>\n

When you open up your Internet browser it will take 1 \/ 10th the time that is does now.<\/p>\n

Let’s start with a little story about how this works…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Let’s say there’s a track team that runs 400 meter relays. This relay team has 3 really, really fast runners – Jimmy<\/strong>, Johnny<\/strong>, and Jojo<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The relay team also has one super slow runner named Smitty<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Now, keep in mind, Smitty<\/strong> is so slow that he’s probably considered more of a jogger.<\/p>\n

Now that you know the above info about the relay team, let’s take a look at how they would compete in a relay.<\/p>\n

In the case of the relay race, individually, it’s really not going to matter how fast Jimmy<\/strong>, Johnny<\/strong>, and Jojo<\/strong> run. They’re already super fast. It’s really not even going to matter if they improve on their race times or speed.<\/p>\n

If Jimmy<\/strong>, Johnny<\/strong>, or Jojo<\/strong> do improve in any way, the team as a whole will be a little bit faster, but the team is still going to be slow and have slow race times.<\/p>\n

Why?<\/p>\n

… Because no matter what, they have Smitty<\/strong> on their team.<\/p>\n

Smitty<\/strong>, as you know, isn’t much of a runner. He single-handedly slows the team down to a point that their race times aren’t even close to any of the other teams’ times.<\/p>\n

Thus, the only way to speed up the team considerably enough to be able to compete, is to speed up Smitty<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

So…<\/p>\n

How does this track team relate to making a slow computer BLAZINGLY FAST?<\/p>\n

Allow me to explain a bit deeper…<\/p>\n

When it comes to a computer, the computer is made up of different components (in this example we’ll call them team members).<\/p>\n

Much like the relay team above, the team members make up the team. In order for the relay team to compete, they must have 4 team members.<\/p>\n

So, in order for the computer to operate, it too must have it’s components (aka team members):<\/p>\n
