Hi everyone. I'm deciding whether to change my Vaio Ultrabook (model SVT 1311). Basically i use it for ableton live for live electronic music, using some midi controller via usb. It always worked fine, but recently one out of two usb ports got broke. That is a big problem since i absolutely rely on usb to play and if the other port stops working on the stage, oh, well, that's a nightmare!
Thus i'm considering selling the laptop and replacing it, but i'm currently low on budget, thus i was considering some used laptop. Considering that 8gb is a must ( 4gb installed and that can be expandable could be good), i looked some old models and in that money range i see only i5 2540m or i5 2520m.
What do you think of this cpu? it is comparable to what i use now, being it i5 3317u? SSD play a big role in the fact that i run ableton smoothly, even though it's just 32gb on 320 gb used for cache?
