If your Medion laptop has started to slow down, or you have overloaded its memory capabilities, then it may be time to upgrade its hard drive. Your laptop's hard drive controls the storage of all of your files, and when it starts to get filled up, this can cause computer speed and storage issues. Luckily, Medion has made it easy for their users to replace its memory drives. With only a Phillips screwdriver and about 10 minutes of your time, you can replace your hard drive with a bigger, more powerful one.
