Hello all,
I have been running into spinning wheel issues on my :
2009 MacBook Pro (2.26 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo), (Memory 4GB), (Startup Disk HDD).
Terrible system wide slowdown, I couldn't keep many applications open and a lot more issues (performance degrading).
I have done clean installs a few times now and I'm running the currently up-to date (OSX 10.9.5). I have captured a few screen shots below based on the readings I got on my Activity Monitor. It'll be helpful if someone would be able to let me know what upgrades to make in order to have an efficient system running. SSD or RAM ?
Performance capture on 4th October :
Performance capture on 6th October :
I would appreciate it if someone could advice me as to what upgrades to make.
Thanks,
Andy
