I have a laptop with 3GB of RAM and I am wondering how much an additional GB would help. It would cost about $30 after shipping and whatnot. For like $60 I could get 8GB, but that seems really overkill considering the other specs.
It just has an AMD E-350 1.65 GHz w/ Radeon 6310 integrated graphics with a 320GB 5400RPM. I mostly just use it for school work at this point, but I'd still like a speed boost. Chrome takes a few seconds to open, which I don't know if it's because of the RAM or the HDD.
Would it be better to get a faster HDD? What kind of HDD/SSD would fit in it? Do laptops just use ordinary 2.5 inch drives? (I guess I can just check myself, lol.)
