SSDs are far better for Dhaka's heat, humidity, and voltage fluctuations. They have no moving parts, so they are resistant to physical shock, run cooler, and consume less power — critical when UPS battery runtime matters. NVMe SSDs offer 5–10x faster speeds than HDDs. BAYAS recommends SSDs for all new builds and upgrades. We offer on-site SSD installation in Dhaka with OS migration included. How much RAM do I really need in 2025? 16 GB is the new sweet spot for most users — enough for multitasking, office work, light gaming, and photo editing. 8 GB is the bare minimum for Windows 11. 32 GB or more is recommended for video editing, virtual machines, 3D rendering, and heavy gaming. BAYAS can advise on the best RAM configuration for your specific needs and install it at your home. Can I upgrade my laptop's processor (CPU)? In most modern laptops, the CPU is soldered to the motherboard and cannot be upgraded. Some older gaming laptops (e.g., with socketed desktop CPUs) allow CPU swaps, but it is rare. Before buying a laptop, choose a CPU that will meet your needs for 3–5 years. For desktops, CPU upgrades are straightforward if the socket and BIOS support the new chip. BAYAS can check your system and recommend the best upgrade path. What is the most common hardware failure in Dhaka? Power supply unit (PSU) failure is the most common issue due to unstable mains voltage, frequent load shedding, and voltage spikes. A failing PSU can damage other components. Using a quality voltage stabiliser or online UPS is strongly recommended. BAYAS can test your PSU, recommend a suitable replacement, and install it at your home or office in Dhaka. ## Need help now?
