This machine is too inadequate* to be worth a lot of effort or expense, but, it IS still useful for modest tasks like recording music or low demand web browsing, word processing, etc. :-)

*Simply regularly closing out memory leaks (browser windows that don't fully close) helps a lot!

*Helps with how much the processor gets bogged down, I mean...

What OS are you running?

D drive is usually the backup partition on MS Windows.....

I'd love to install a SSD as a 2nd drive, as I have a couple spares, but, I'm not at all sure the N22 has a spot for them.(?)

Just get even a cheap ($2.93) USB adapter for the SSD, while Run diskmgmt.msc to see what it says, and from whence you can change the drive#.

Hope this helps. http://peacebyjesus.net

The tool you want is “disk management” to change drive letters, partitions, etc.

This is one of many sites the leads one to open it: https://www.howtogeek.com/787213/5-ways-to-open-disk-management-on-windows-10-or-11/

Assuming some not too ancient version of Windows, reassign drive letter in Disk Management, can be found in Computer Management console.

"It is as you say."

This here: https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/solutions/pd104074-product-overview-lenovo-n22-winbook, implies that it might have a smallish SSD. Might. And maxes out at 8GB RAM. And is extremely coy about exactly what CPU is in there.

Probably not a lot you can do with it. Mint Linux or ChromeOS Flex if you can tolerate the whole Chromebook experience.

Then back up what you want and whack it, factory reset. Problem solved.
