Hello @clayto,
Did theDefragmenting
of theC:\ Drive
also help?
It is an eMMC SSD which I do not defragment
I know that eMMC drives are supposed to be inferior to other SSDs but have never found any explanation of the extent / limitations. I have had 3 and they seem to have been OK to me, but I am not very demanding.
They tend to be slower than an SSD, and smaller (typically 32GB or 64GB) but their main disadvantage is that they tend to be soldered to the motherboard so cannot be replaced.
More here from the How-To Geek:
eMMC vs. SSD: Not All Solid-State Storage is Equal
My Chewi is 128 GB, quite adequate for my usage and the Tablet PC is faster than its predecessor. The solder fixing is an issue but applies to other parts of the 'sealed' system too, but the only thing I would prefer not to be fixed is the RAM, which is 6GB and depending on how long the device lasts I expected in time I may want to increase it (and may be unable to), though it is OK for now. I think this type of 2-in-1 hybrid Tablet PC is much neglected in forums, magazines etc. which seems odd as they have been growing in popularity I understand, for reasons in addition to low cost --- the good connectability was what attracted me to my present and previous machines.
