Upgrades
Is your computer slow or running out of space? Replacing a mechanical hard drive with a much faster solid state drive (SSD) which are now standard on most new computers, or adding more memory can speed up and extend the life of a PC or laptop for much less than the cost of a new one.
Typical price £120 to fit a 480GB SSD as the main drive with a fresh installation of Windows 10 or 11 (if compatible). Your old drive can be connected as a secondary disk if your PC has room, or fitted into an external caddy/enclosure (typically £15-£25 depending on drive size). We will collect your computer, reinstall your software, return and reconnect everything when complete. Additional charge (£5-£10) for travel if you are located more than 5 miles from Stroud.
For memory (RAM) upgrades we would need to see or connect remotely to the computer to determine compatibility and provide a price.
