So I have an Inspiron 3847 and it has a 3.5’ 1TB hard drive. Sorry, I’m not at home right now and forget which brand.

I was hoping to upgrade to a SSD and therewithin lies the problem. I can’t find any 3.5 SSDs.

I’m very confused. But would it be possible to connect a 2.5’ SSD to the same Sata connectors my current (old) hard drive uses? I’m unsure which version of sata it is.

My PC was built in 2014 if that helps.

    You’ll find that Kingwin to be useful at multiple things, I promise.

    I have something like 20,000 Windows 10 keys, send me a private message and I’ll set you up with a legit iso and key if needed. Otherwise, have fun nerding out with your new toys!

      Are any of them for Windows 10 LTSC? I heard you can get rid of all the bloat.

      Oh, also, I bought ram too. Gonna max out at 16GB now. Which doubles it from my current 8GB. I’m told 16GB is the most my motherboard can take.

        Zero chance. ltsc is a per license subscription cost. no company or person would give those out to anyone for free no different than giving a stranger your Netflix account.

        Windows 10 Enterprise is probably the least bloated version, it’s a company version after all and lacks a lot of the crap. Windows 10 debloater is a nice powershell app that does a good job too though.

        16GB is easily comfortable and can even game on with zero issues.

        Let me know how it goes.
