Adventures with Solid State Drives

The author recounts upgrading an HP laptop with an SSD, noting significant improvements in system stability and a reduction in issues like the “Blue Screen of Death” and overheating.

He also discourages posting directed links or posts that seem manipulative, as well as sending welcome messages with lucrative links. While he acknowledges that this approach gives him fewer followers, he is comfortable with a community that values authenticity over misinformation. #Twitter #X
