Need a faster computer but the budget not allowing for it at the moment? Our computer upgrades Brisbane store can help by replacing just a few components in your desktop or laptop (Mac or Windows unit) to boost speed significantly—often by more than 5×—starting from only a few hundred dollars. We’ve been doing computer upgrades for customers for years; sometimes just replacing the internal hard drive with a Solid State Drive is all you need.
If the machine is running well, we can image your drive so you don’t have to spend days restoring everything. These jobs are simple and straightforward—and many of our business customers appreciate this efficient approach. With careful planning, we can collect your computer late in the afternoon and have it ready before lunchtime the next day—or even by 9:30 a.m. in many cases.
Bring your machine in and let’s see what we can do to help you out. We can make a plan and see it through.

Not All Solid State Drives Are Made Equal
In the early days, SSDs booted fast but were slow to write data. Some older drives offered read/write speeds of around 400 MB/s / 120 MB/s. Even the 2.5″ Samsung SATA drives only managed about 540 MB/s read / 520 MB/s write.
But the latest evolution—like the Samsung 970 Evo Plus—boasts read/write speeds of 3500 MB/s / 2800 MB/s. That makes them 6.5 times faster than standard SSDs. We prefer Samsung SSDs at Core Computers because of the reliability and performance they deliver. That’s why many of the top‑speed drives we use are Samsung.
If you bought your machine in the past 2 years, there’s a good chance it can make use of this newer technology. Many machines we’ve seen from other companies used cheaper drives and lost out on performance—often saving $50–$100 up front but regretting it later.
