Hi, I'm Thalia and I'm a graphic designer and photographer based in Atlanta. My current laptop has 4gb of RAM and 58gb of SSD storage. Every time I try to edit a photo on programs such as Affinity or Photoshop, the laptop freezes or the program itself crashes and automatically quits. Because of this, I cannot work on any projects I'm supposed to work on without the files corrupting or the program crashing. The speakers don't work so I have to use headphones or an external speaker to have sound. I need a new laptop with a minimum of 16gb or more of RAM and a minimum of 1tb or more of SSD storage so that it can last for years. This is to ensure the creative programs I use to make graphics and photo editing run smoothly without any technical difficulties. In today's world, technology is expensive especially with the more storage and RAM that specific device got.
