I bought an Intel Core i5 3230M, 8 GB DDR3 1600 Mhz, Intel HD 4000 (don't game on laptops), 1 TB 5400 RPM HDD Samsung laptop on sale last year at Best Buy (looks nice too with a silver color) and it is really slow and sluggish when starting up Windows 8.1 and at opening programs however it gets better once I actually turn it on and use it for a while.
I was wondering if the HDD would be the reason why the laptop is slow and sluggish at the beginning? I was thinking of buying an SSD (120 gb or 240 GB) to install the OS and all the programs I need and put the files into an external storage. Would this improve performance?
