I have a Dell XPS M1530 with a Intel Core 2 duo T8300 2.40 GHz, which is an i5 I believe. is it possible to upgrade to a i7 Intel processor or no. If not I'm looking at the Intel Core 2 Duo Mobile 2.50 GHZ / 6 MB cache / 800 MHZ FSB CPU Processor - T9300. will this work? Keep in mind this is a Vista Era PC now running windows 10. I'm also upgrading the HDD from 500 GB to 1 TB and would like to know if I can add a SSD in combination to the 1 TB HDD. And as far the 6 GB of RAM I have, can I upgrade the RAM to 8 GB or even 16 GB? The Parts-people.com website didn't offer my 6 GB of RAM I have now. So, I'd like to max it out but I don't know how to find out how much RAM this 2007 Era PC will handle it. Any help?
