Back to computer repair

If your computer is slow but otherwise fine, an SSD upgrade is often a better value than a new machine. We clone your current drive onto the SSD so Windows or macOS, your programs, and all your files transfer exactly as they were — you just turn it back on and it's fast.

What is ssd upgrade?

An SSD (solid-state drive) replaces the mechanical hard drive in your computer with storage that has no moving parts. On a five-to-ten-year-old machine it's usually the single biggest speed improvement available — boot times drop from minutes to seconds and everyday apps open instantly. We clone your existing drive across so your files, programs, and settings come with it.

What’s included

  • SSD recommendation sized to your needs (or fit one you've bought)
  • Full clone of your existing drive — files, apps, and settings preserved
  • Physical install and verification the machine boots from the SSD
  • Old drive returned to you, or securely wiped on request
  • Honest assessment of whether your machine is worth upgrading

Common questions

Will I lose my files or have to reinstall everything?+

No. We clone your existing drive onto the SSD, so Windows/macOS, your programs, and your files all come across exactly as they are. You don't reinstall anything.

Is my computer worth upgrading?+

If it's roughly five to ten years old with a mechanical hard drive, an SSD usually transforms it for a fraction of a new machine's cost. We'll tell you honestly if yours is too old to be worth it.
