Dell Precision 670 dual Xeon workstation
Since the 4GB memory upgrade the beast is running very nicely. Lucky for me Microsoft extended Vista to 2017 which is what it's running - Vista Business.
Balcony PC update
As posted last Sunday bought from the market, installed and cloned a Sandisk SSD Plus 240GB - all good. Anyway ended up with quite an array of drives (LOL) as Macrium Reflect just tagged every drive with a letter including system partitions etc. Did some cleanup in Disk Management to hide stuff (see picture) so we are tidy again. Next task was to cleanup the SSD as all the user data like docs, photos videos etc is already on (what is now) the F: storage drive - the Samsung 1TB. Note that all the apps including large ones like Office 2007 Pro will stay on the SSD and as you can see from the picture we have 145GB free.
