I have a 2012 Dell Desktop w/Win7, that started getting a little slower. When opening a USB drive.

I noticed recently, that the USB drive I have plugged into my PC, started opening more slowly. The one

I use the most is small 4GB and is one I bought a while ago. So, I figured it was the USB Drive. I saw 

a 32GB Drive on sale for $13, so I bought it. But, it was not the drive, because the new opens a little

slow as well. It is really not a big deal, it is only a moment or two longer. What would cause this?

I have owned 6 PCs, since I bought my first after Win 95 came out. They have all gotten slower as 

they got older.  My current PC is very fast, so as long as it does not continue getting slower, it won't

be a problem. I think this is just something that happens to PCs as they get older. I wonder why this is

the case?  But, in general, I'm very happy with this Dell Desktop. It does not use as much power as the

2005 did. You can tell by the fact it does not heat up the room, like the 2005 did. That is important in FL. 

My new PC is also a lot lighter in weight and a lot lot faster as well. PCs have really improved over time.
