I have a 8 year old Dell XPS 720. I know at that age it will have issues. Right now it is running slow but the CPU usage only shows around 5-10% and RAM shows around 40%. those are both low percentages for this computer, but it still runs slow, espeacialy when opening programs and files. Now I know that the hard drive (1T western digital) is slow as hell. Could the hard drive be the issue?
