A: No problem in installing an SSD. The problem is to install the OS on the SSD. You can try to image the HD to the SSD before booting up and let Win10 configure the system. Recommend that you realign the SSD before you start.
A: You cannot add a disk Drive to the machine itself, but you can buy a USB external DVD-R/RW/DL for under $35 at Best buy. Better to use an external drive anyway, as including it would make this laptop much larger and thicker. Pretty normal nowadays anyways.
A: Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-AC 7265
Q: Is the Hard Drive user upgradeable? Can I later upgrade it to SSD?
A: The upgrade that you purpose is probably the best investment you can do for this machine, two weakness for this particular model, Touchpad flimsy build quality and a very slow hard drive. In order to proceed with the upgrade, make a back up of every important data, turn your PC off, then just remove the small Philips type screws located on the rear, remove the back lid (carefully, it will fill like removing back covers of old Samsung Galaxy phones, S3 or S4) exchange the HDD for the SSD, reinstall Windows and restore back up copies using your favorite method. Warning: Before proceeding check if this procedure can damage your product warranty.
Q: Is there any way to fix the Wi-fi problems that this computer has?
A: Yes, there is a way to fix this problem. I was having this same problem when I got my laptop. First, I went into Device Manager, network adapters, Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 8260 properties. From there, go into power management and un-check "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power". This helped keep the wi-fi connection when I would turn my computer on or wake it from sleep mode. Next, I went and updated the driver from Intel's website: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/86068/Intel-Dual-Band-Wireless-AC-8260 Now that I have updated the driver, I don't seem to have the issue as much anymore. Right now I have driver version 18.30.0.9 on my computer and will probably check back regularly to update it in the future. Hope this helps!
Q: Are the Wifi Problems from Previous Models Fixed?
A: The demo model at the store had trouble connecting, and I also have had lots of trouble since getting my own.
Q: Can you add a ssd along with the hd?
A: Thanks for your question, Guest. No, the Satellite Radius 15 laptops do not support a solid state drive along with the hard drive.
Q: How is the sound on this computer?
A: Adding wireless speakers to your computer can be relatively inexpensive now-a-days(it can also be quite pricey depending on how techy you want to be!). I use mine all the time with a remote that way I never have my laptop anywhere near the food and my "little helpers" who have "lot's" of accidents! Don't let the volume of the speakers be the only option holding you back from buying a particular computer. If you love everything else about it, then go for it, buy it, and get the speakers to go with it. The nice thing about having them "one the side"...you can use them with your other computers as well!! Good Luck!.
