Asus X553M Laptop. 256Gb SSD upgrade and service.

Microsmith Electronics in Newport completed a SSD upgrade on a Asus X553M Laptop. 256Gb and service.. This is one of the most common repairs we carry out at our Newport workshop, and we stock parts for a wide range of laptop models so most jobs can be turned around the same day.

What Was Wrong

The Asus X553M came with a 500GB mechanical hard drive from the factory. After several years of use, the drive was slow, fragmented and starting to show early signs of failure. The machine was taking over 5 minutes to boot and was almost unusable for day-to-day tasks.

How We Fixed It

The original drive was replaced with a fast SSD. The operating system was migrated and the machine benchmarked for read and write speeds before being returned. The repair is backed by our 12-month warranty on parts and labour.
