So I ended up putting my primary laptop's old 500GB SSD drive into my other laptop that had a 500GB HDD. Before that, I wanted to update everything and make sure there were no issues before the swap. This laptop is a dual boot with #Windows10 and #Ubuntu.
I haven't really used it in a long time (at least 1 year or more) and both OSes were way behind with updates. Windows took over a day to download and install all the updates. I then decided to upgrade my #Ubuntu1804LTS #BionicBeaver to #Ubuntu2204LTS #JammyJellyfish.
First, I had to upgrade to #Ubuntu2004LTS #FocalFossa. Everything went pretty smoothly. I just couldn't download via CLI. It kept saying "packages not found." I was able to use the updater via the GUI, however.
So after that, the old SSD from the primary laptop is in and there is of course a nice performance boost. Windows still isn't great since it only has the stock 4GB of RAM, unlike my primary that I boosted up to 12GB of RAM, but it's plenty for Ubuntu. I'll probably keep that as my main Linux system/backup for if the primary laptop goes out on me.
