Increasing the RAM on her laptop will provide more space for temporary storage of data, which will help her laptop perform better even when using multiple applications simultaneously. Using an external hard disk drive or saving data on a DVD may free up space on her hard disk drive, but it will not directly impact the performance of her laptop. Replacing the hard disk drive with one that provides lesser storage capacity is not necessary and may even result in her having to constantly manage the storage of her data.
