As to the storage bank that's a great way to make the PC run even slower. Again, DO NOT BUY SUCH unless it's to copy out what you can't lose to backups.
Hello, I’ve been attempting to play small basic games on my laptop but I just don’t know where to begin. I’m planning on buying a storage bank to keep the files on and a memory card for whatever that does. The problem is, I don’t know the terminology. I understand that RAM is what I need to make things run smoothly (apparently 16 GB is more than enough to make games run although I’m not sure) but If I were to buy a SanDisk microSD card, would that have RAM or does that have storage (or both?). I’m planning on buying a fairly big storage bank to keep the files on but I’m a bit confused what the difference is between a SD card and a storage bank because the SD in my Switch gives it 60 something GB of storage. If I’ve said something so stupid that it makes no sense, I’d be happy to elaborate to the best of my ability. Any help is appreciated.
