*Note about Solid State Drive vs. Hard Disk Drives – if users do not have a large data requirement, we will move them to a SSD. The cost of a SSD is approximately double that of its HDD equivalent. In order to keep the costs in line, we will opt for a 250GB SSD.
Exact models are based on pricing, availability, user’s specification, and software requirements. Our goal has been to specify the computer to be replaced or upgraded every 3 years. However, replacement or upgrade may be longer than 3 years if the computer still meets the user’s needs.
