Asked By stephen pagee 10 points N/A Posted on - 06/02/2017

Hi! I am new to using the laptops as I recently got into this field. I do not very much like the hardware for long time purpose. Although it is very convenient but often you wish to use the old peripherals. Is there any way to swap the systems without any data loss or does anyone know how to connect laptop to a docking system?
