History

  • 2023.08.16 → Bought on allegro.pl for 34 €

Everything else is working it has 2gb of ram, touchscreen is really good integrated, even bios have touchscreen support with touchscreen keyboard!
  • 2023.08.21 → Bought hdd caddy and battery from aliexpress for total of 59,14 €
  • 2023.09.07 → The hdd caddy have just arrived.
  • 2023.09.08 → Did some screen and case cleaning. Added hdd caddy with Crucial BX500 2.5 SSD 240GB, also i have disassembled the unit and removed the remaining 2gb ram module, added two 4gb ram modules instead, tested using memtest86+, replaced the cpu thermal paste, installed win7 pro x64 sp1.
  • 2023.09.09 → I have designed the hdd plastic cover, it took me trough 4 versions but i made it and seems like it's water resistant but i'm not 100% sure. You can find the model and the sketch on the thingiverse.
  • 2023.09.10 → I have assembled the final version of hdd plastic cover and it looks not so bad..
