I would try the clean install option, I do this every time a new
operating system comes out. 4 GB should be enough memory for decent
speed. I have a 2010 macbook with 4 GB and it runs fine, I would give
the clean install a try.
Original message:
Listers,
I'd like to ask your advise. A friend of mine has a 2012 macbook pro
with 4GB RAM, 2.4 GHZ processor and non-solid 500GB drive. It seem to
run rather frustratingly slowly. It regularly freezes and generally
applications take a long time to open. Do you think it would be worth
while to do a clean install of Sierra on it? I'd appreciate any
comments here. I understand that rotating hard drives take a bit
longer but it is after all 2.4 GHZ and they don't even use Voiceover.
I know it's slightly of topic, but I would be doing their clean install
using Voiceover in the process.
Andrew
