do you have a laptop hard drive with windows 11 on it that fits a laptop laying around? if you do may be able to use that

The toshiba laptop I am using has an access panel on the bottom that allows access to hard drive, ram and the coin cr2032 battery. One other idea is to do what I did with this laptop, when I got it, a friend of my mom's had 6 of their old laptops laying around, wanted the hard drives removed...

I have the other question, is it really needed to completely shut the laptop completely down? I usually just close it when I am done, and either plug it into the charger, or depending on the amount of charge just leave it until I am ready or need to use it again. usually only restart if an...

Just upgraded my Lenovo T440s notebook to Windows 11 pro from Windows 10 pro, had to use the Rufus tool since it is an unsupported machine, but seems to run Windows 11 pro just fine, and unless its just because I got it to run Windows 11, it actually seems to be faster which is a good thing, not...
