Microsoft Surface Laptop I7 16Gb 256Gb

I have used several types of laptop computers, but Microsoft Surface Pro 7 is more than I expected :)

My laptop is running 16GB of RAM, an i7 processor and a 1TB hard drive. �(Due to the size, it was slow - 5400 rpm.) �I wanted an SSD when I bought the laptop 4 years ago, but prices of SSD were sky high if you could find them. �This is a much more reasonable price. �If you are maxed out on RAM, this is the next upgrade to look add - the loading and saving process is so much faster and reliability substantially higher as there are no moving parts. �It breathes new life into Windows based units!

I upgraded my Dell Laptop G5 5590 9750H Core i7 from 16GB to 32GB. It is working very well. I am used to use crucial products, first I started with SSDs and now with memory modules. Regards

Microsoft surface pen is a great choice

upgrade it with Intel 6Core i7 & 16GB of DDR4, i run MacOS natively with 8gb and Windows10 & Linux on virtual box.. both with 4gb of ram and each occupies 1 core !! i plan on buying an eGPU also ;-)

2018 Mac mini I7 16GB ram & 512 SSD 2014 Mac mini took 125 seconds from boot to log in.  2018 is 25 seconds. 2014 Mac mini took long time to open Excel. Photoshop or Premiere.  The 2018 takes about 2 seconds. I couldnt be more pleased

I was working on an hp 16gb 8 core i7 workstation from 2017. It would take 10 minutes to do AI denoise in lightroom on a single photo. On this workstation (32gb, 24 core i9) - it takes 15 seconds on the same photo. Using this to run adobe creative cloud suite and having zero performance issues. So pleased with this purchase.

Decided to go from 16gb to 32gb and found it improved my photo imaging software (Topaz Gigapixel) by about 25%. I have a Dell i7-7706 with i7-gen11th and the previous RAM was 2666mh and these are 3200mh so I suspect I have some limitations of my motherboard...but I'll happily take the 25% for about $100. Installation very simple, Windows did the drive/BIOs updates in minutes. Previous to this I upgraded my SSD to the Samsung 970 2tb and that was a breeze as well. It's nice during your project you're not cursing out loud.

Pairs with the Microsoft Surface Go I got as a gift for my spouse. She's quite happy with it.

I replaced the 256GB SSD in a Surface Pro 7+. I tried loading an image from the Surface Pro support page and I tried loading Windows 10 & 11 from just the Microsoft site that were not specific to the Surface Pro. I kept having random reboots. It would stay on 25 minutes then reboot then reboot again after it restarted. I finally remembered to check this site for firmware/drivers. Once I installed the firmware update, NO MORE REBOOTS. I hope this helps someone else remember firmware updates
