Computer Upgrades
If you have a desktop or laptop that you want upgrading, or if you are considering getting a newer, faster computer, but are unsure whether to upgrade your old one? Then come and see us. We can advise you on potential upgrades, how much they would cost, what kind of difference they would make, and how an upgraded machine would compare to an entirely new one.
SSD Upgrades from £60!
One of the most popular upgrades that massively speed up computers is fitting an SSD drive to a machine. SSDs are microchip-based storage devices that can replace, or work alongside traditional mechanical spinning hard disks. They are both immensely faster and more reliable. They shorten boot times in some case cut them down to a quarter or less, as well as speeding up almost everything else your computer does. With SSD prices falling all the time it is now more affordable than ever to have one fitted to your machine.
The £60 quoted above includes a brand new 120GB SSD, the labour to fix it and to move all your files and programs onto the new drive. Larger Drives are available and may be required for customers with a lot of data.

If you are unable to visit our shop and need us to collect a machine, then return it when any work is complete, or have a problem that needs to be dealt with at in your own home, such as networking issues, we are happy to come out to you.
