SSD Upgrade and Photoshop CS6 now lags
Hi everyone
I've got a Macbook Pro 15-inch, Mid 2010
Processor: 2.8 GHz Core i7
Memory: 8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForece GT 330M 512 MB
Serial Number :
Software: OSX 10.9.5
Replaced the SSD with a Crucial_CT512 M550 SSD1
Partition Map Type: GPT
So the computer starts up fine, nice a quick. But recently the computer has struggled with minor tasks, loading web pages, etc. My Main issue is photoshop constantly lags now. When I open a black file and use the paint brush tool on a large size, the brush lags and photoshop even bring up the (wait/hourglass/process) mouse icon. Any ideas of what to do? Is the issue the new SSD? Or is this Macbook just to old now to handle photoshop CS6?
Es esta una buena pregunta?

How much free space do you still have on your drive? You may need to free up some space and/or reduce the number of apps or files you have open concurrently.

Hi all, for a 500GB SSD drive I have 300GB of free space. My SSD is only a couple of months old.
Regarding open applications, I only had Photoshop CS6 open.
Photoshop does open, and I can create a new blank document. But my issue is the paint brush, its super slow, and the spinning wheel of death pops up when I try anything. When this happens I have to force shutdown Photoshop. I have 8GB of RAM.
I'm thinking it might be a mother board issue? Could it really be the Hard Drive Cable? even thou I have no trouble running all other applications like, Mail, Safari, Numbers? Plus uploading and downloading files and photos, I find there are no issues?
