Upgrading Your Sahara NetSlate

the slot before pressing

it down. Do not force it, if

the module will not press

downward you probably

do not have it completely

seated in the slot. Many

memory errors or boot up

failures after a memory

upgrade are due to an

improperly seated RAM

module.

Replace the cover on this

compartment and then

replace and tighten the

screws.

Upgrading the Data Storage Drive (HDD or SSD)

The Sahara NetSlate’s data drive is the storage facility that holds

all the files on your computer. If you find you are running out of

space, you might consider upgrading to a larger drive.

Typically, when a computer’s Hard Disk Drive (HDD) fills up, its

access time begins to increase and your system seems to slow

down. When this occurs, upgrading to a larger drive often will

equate to better performance.

While generally more expensive, Solid State Drives (SSD) use

non-volatile NAND Flash RAM to store data and are much faster

than even the speediest HDD. Additionally, SSDs do not contain

any moving parts and therefore are more durable and consume

less battery power. If you need to increase your system’s perfor-

mance, upgrading to an SSD is a worthwhile investment.
