Expansions in a computer refer to the ability to add or upgrade components to enhance functionality or performance. Some common expansion options and benefits include increasing Ram. Increasing Ram allows for smoother multitasking, faster program loading and overall improved system performance. Another is adding more storage such as SDD or HDD provides extra space for files, applications, and media, reducing the risk of running out of storage space. Another is expansion cards such as sound cards, network cards, or USB expansion cards, can improve audio quality, connectivity options, and overall, the system. Upgrading the CPU can boost overall systems speed and performance, allowing for faster processing of tasks. Installing additional ports such as USB hubs or thunderbolt ports, increases connectivity options for peripherals, external storage, and other devices.
