Hi -
I have an ADK system built in 2014. It is great, “optimized for audio”, but I found I can’t update it to W11, and that makes me think it’s days are numbered.
Specs are here:
|Processor|Intel(R) Core™ i5-4570 CPU @ 3.20GHz 3.20 GHz|
|Installed RAM|16.0 GB|
|Device ID|D3EAC655-BC25-4091-88D8-D556F78F18AF|
|Product ID|00330-80000-00000-AA038|
|System type|64-bit operating system, x64-based processor|
|Pen and touch|No pen or touch input is available for this display|
Also, I have two SSDs, one that has the operating system and other programs, and one for samples.
I’d sure like to avoid having to buy another pre-built computer, and as you can tell by reading this I am not a “let’s build our own” kind of guy.
Any starter suggestions on how to/if a computer system can be upgraded? Could it be as simple as replacing the motherboard with a more modern and powerful one? Or is the rest of the system too old and that wouldn’t really be all that useful?
(I’ve added RAM to a computer, so I know I can do that physically).
Thanks for any thoughts!
