Replaced the internal speaker on my laptop (the original one died), added 16gb of ram (at 24), and installed migrated windows to a modest sized ssd, for about 60 bucks my computer will continue to be useful for quite a while longer.

  Sounds like some nice upgrades there, congratulations. Just got a computer with an SSD at work this year. I had no idea they were so much faster than a standard hard drive. I liked it so much that I made it a necessity for my new home rig. Good luck and enjoy.

  I'm using the ssd for windows and basically nothing else, its a small drive but way more than enough for windows and to give it the life preserving overhead, but speeding up windows is probably the best thing I can do to keep the computer fast

  If you really want the beast to shine, put Linux or Chrome OS on it. But yeah those upgrades will certainly make it faster. An old HDD is a non-starter these days. I am loving my Google Pixelbook with Chrome. Even with only 8 GB of RAM, it's lightning fast. It has an SSD.
