That sure would be a lot faster, but I doubt USB would be all that fast on a 10 year old Dell. Also, if a decade old Dell is your platform of choice, I’m not sure if spending 150 bucks on an SSD + enclosure is worth the money. Probably best to upgrade the internal drive and memory first.
It works well on my 7 year old laptop and my 10 year old media server :)
I don’t know about prices anywhere else, but I bought a 500GB SSD and a Sabrent enclosure about a month ago for £20 each. Like you said, it’s better to upgrade the computer first, if it hasn’t been already, but if you use portable storage regularly, it’s worth it.
