What can I do here? The SSD gave it new life. Should I add more ram or overclock? I mainly use it as my entertainment system (Internet TV, Pandora, iTunes, Guitar Pro, and as our Server which is always on). Just haven't figured out how to get my pc to quite down except for the drives that are used as our server over the network.
