Hi... I need some help deciding between two systems.
I am evaluating an ASUS EeeBook E402MA-WX0055T Notebook 2.16 GHz N3540 14 inch 1366 x 768 p, N3540, Touchpad, Windows 10 Home, 64-bit, Intel Pentium, SonicMaster VERSUS A Refurbished Thinkpad T420 14" Core i5-2520m, 4GB RAM, 320GB HDD, Windows 7 Pro.
My questions are:
-Is 2 GB RAM on the ASUS sufficient & would moving the pagefile to an SSD I will purchase for this system compensate? Does it make the system faster? My usage is typically surfing, online streaming, MS Office, Acrobat etc.
-Will the Thinkpad T420 running Win 7 Pro be able to run Win10 Home smoothly? I intend to replace the DVD drive with an SSD caddy but wonder whether it makes sense going in for this versus a brand new system?
Thank you.
