Kids these days will never know the frustration of booting a PC on an ancient HDD. I'd turn on my laptop, go do something else for 3 minutes, log in, go do something else for everything to wake up, then I can start using it.

Get a SSD. It will run so much faster and everything will be instant.

I know, I used to use an SSD with a different laptop. But it doesn't bother me enough, especially since I reboot it like once a month.
