Hi -- I'm looking to buy the Acer Aspire E 15 E5-575-33BM laptop. These are the specs:
Intel Core i3-7100U Processor 7th Generation
4GB DDR4
1TB 5400RPM Hard Drive
The laptop has an extra slot for an m.2 SSD, so I'll be buying a 250GB SSD to install. I'd like to know:
Should I install the SSD before I turn on the computer or after?
I've read that once the SSD is installed, I would need to clone the Windows 10 OS to the SSD. I plan to use EaseUS Todo Backup to do this. Seeing as this will be a new computer, will this be a fairly straightforward process? For example, would I need a Windows system repair disk or anything like that?
RELATED QUESTION: I'll also be buying an extra 4GB of RAM. I'd like to know:
Should I install the RAM before I turn on the computer or after?
I appreciate any and all guidance. Thanks in advance.
Mike
