-Are you contemplating upgrading a computer but you are not sure of the best path to take? There was a time when the least expensive path to upgrade an old computer was to increase the RAM. It rang true mostly in the old days when it was possible to pick up discarded computers at the curb on garbage day, and transfer the RAM to another computer (once in a while the computer on the curb was better than the one I was sourcing parts for). Purchasing more RAM to boost performance was still an option; at least the RAM purchase postponed the pain of transferring files from one computer to another.

-New developments have changed my view on this. If the computer you wish to improve is a 32-bit machine, then purchasing RAM for it is a short-term solution because the current round of upgrades for most distros will be the last of the 32-bit operating systems. The year 2021 marks the end, and it will be here before we know it. Also, RAM for these 32-bit computers probably will not be transferable to another computer. In recent years, I found the cost of RAM to be too high when I consider the low cost of a new computer. If purchasing new RAM chips forces me to discard the RAM chips that I paid for when I purchased the computer, I am not happy. Does anyone want to spend more than one third of the cost of a new computer on any upgrades, especially if you are not a gamer? I call it the one-third by-law of the law of diminishing returns.

-The one-third by-law comes into play on older 64-bit computers as well. My computer at work is a five year old Dell Optiplex, a business class computer with lots of life left in it yet, but it only has two gigabytes of RAM. And even Ubuntu Mate was running slow on it – not painfully slow, but slow.
+Envisagez-vous de mettre à niveau un ordinateur, mais sans être certain de la meilleure façon de faire ? Il fut un temps où la façon la moins chère pour mettre à niveau un vieil ordinateur était d'augmenter la RAM. Pour la plupart, cela semblait vrai jadis quand vous pouviez récupérer des ordinateurs mis sur le trottoir le jour des encombrants et transférer la RAM sur un autre ordinateur (de temps en temps l'ordinateur jeté était meilleur que celui pour lequel je cherchais des composants). L'achat de RAM pour améliorer les performances restait une possibilité ; au moins l'achat retardait la douleur du transfert des fichiers d'un ordi à un autre.
-A recent visit to the showroom of a computer refurbish shop was an eye opener, as this shop was taking older computers and replacing the old mechanical hard disk with an SSD (Solid State Drive) – great idea, if you can buy them at volume pricing. However, in the last few weeks, I have noticed the price of SSDs has fallen, and there have been some good sales on. I found a 120GB drive for forty dollars Canadian. At that price, how could I go wrong? I have never filled a 60GB drive with data. Remember that the main objective is to get the operating system on a faster disk – while spending the least amount of money. If all or your data will not fit, it can continue to reside on the original disk that can operate as a slave. Unlike RAM, a new SSD can be used in another computer later when the old computer bites the dust.
+De nouveaux développements ont changé ma façon de penser. Si l'ordinateur que vous voulez améliorer est une machine à 32 bits, l'achat de RAM n'est qu'une solution de court terme, parce que le cycle actuel des mises à niveau pour la plupart des distrib. sera le dernier pour les systèmes d'exploitation 32-bit. L'année 2021 en marque la fin et il arrivera du jour au lendemain. Qui plus est, la RAM pour ces ordinateurs à 32 bits ne sera sans doute pas utilisable dans un autre ordinateur. Au cours des dernières années, je trouvais que les barrettes de RAM étaient trop chères par rapport au prix minime d'un nouvel ordinateur. Si l'achat de nouvelles barrettes m'oblige à jeter les barrettes que j'avais payées lors de l'achat de l'ordinateur, ça ne me plaît pas. Est-ce que quiconque voudrait dépenser plus du tiers du coût d'un nouvel ordinateur sur des mises à niveau, surtout s'il n'est pas un joueur ? Je l'appelle la règle du tiers dans la loi des rendements décroissants.
-In the installation process, I disconnected the cables to my original hard disk and connected them to the new disk; my insurance policy to prevent me from doing something silly like overwriting my original disk with the new installation. I do not know about you, but if I had five cents for every time I zipped when I should have zapped, I would be a millionaire. Later, I used my USB hard disk enclosure to transfer my data from the old disk to the computer.

-I am happy to tell you that my five-year-old computer, with 2GB RAM, works much faster with the new SSD. Applications open quickly with no waiting. I noticed a big improvement in FireFox and LibreOffice. It was worth the effort in both time and money to do the upgrade.

+La règle du tiers est valable aussi sur des ordinateurs 64-bit vieillissants. Au bureau, mon ordinateur est un Dell Optiplex de cinq ans, c'est un ordinateur professionnel qui pourrait vivre encore très longtemps, mais il n'a que deux gigaoctets de RAM. Et même Ubuntu MATE tournait au ralenti dessus - pas douloureusement lent, mais lent quand même.
+Une visite récente à la salle d'exposition d'un magasin d'ordinateurs recyclés m'a ouvert les yeux, car ce magasin prenait des ordinateurs vieillissants et remplaçait les vieux disques durs tournants par des SSD - une idée géniale si vous pouvez acheter ceux-ci au prix de gros. Cependant, au cours des dernières semaines, j'ai remarqué que le prix des SSD a baissé et qu'il y a eu de bonnes soldes. J'ai trouvé un disque de 120 Go pour 40 dollars canadiens. À ce prix-là, je ne pouvais pas me tromper. Je ne remplis jamais un disque de 60 Go avec mes données. Souvenez-vous que l'objectif principal est de mettre le système d'exploitation sur un disque plus rapide, pour le moindre coût possible. Si toutes vos données n'y vont pas, celles de trop peuvent rester sur le disque d'origine qui peut opérer en tant qu'esclave. Contrairement à la RAM, un nouveau SSD peut s'utiliser dans un autre ordinateur plus tard à la mort de la vieille machine.

+Au cours du processus d'installation, j'ai déconnecté les câbles de mon disque dur d'origine et les ai connectés au nouveau disque ; c'était comme un contrat d'assurance qui m'empêcherait de faire des bêtises, comme d'écraser le disque d'origine avec la nouvelle installation. Je ne sais pas pour vous, mais si j'avais cinq centimes pour chaque fois où j'ai zippé quand j'aurais dû supprimer, je serais millionnaire. Par la suite, j'ai utilisé un boîtier externe sur USB pour transférer mes données du vieux disque vers l'ordinateur.
+Je suis ravi de pouvoir vous dire que mon ordinateur de 5 ans, avec 2 Go de RAM, fonctionne beaucoup plus vite avec le nouveau SSD. Les applications se lancent rapidement, sans attente. J'ai remarqué de grandes améliorations dans Firefox et LibreOffice. faire la mise à niveau valait le coup, et pour le temps, et pour l'argent.
