I have the same experience a bit varied, I'm majoring in embedded systems and almost everyone uses pen and paper.
Then I took some Law-courses and there i felt like most used laptops (and the laptops they used weren't any good, the noise of 30 "clicky" keyboards gets really annoying).
I also feel that its a lot easier and smoother to write notes on paper, You can really structure your notes how you want without clicking everywhere.
A bit of a misleading title, in the end he had a 32bit installation of Windows... he upgraded to the 64bit version and everything was fine. No RAM to blame.
I think that was just with his fresh install which caused additional problems, he still had other issues with his original install, which I assume was 64 bit. It's not exactly clear from his writing though.
Also this makes me wonder why 32 bit versions of Windows 10 even exist. Are 32 bit x86 CPUs even being made? I thought they were phased out a long time ago, and any hardware from that era would struggle to run Windows 10.
Heres a short program that the Finnish Broadcasting company did with an American visiting Nordic prisons/correctional institues, just to show a different thinking. Punishment or Rehabilitation.

And a couple of days ago Microsoft announced that Office 365 subscribers gets unlimited OneDrive storage (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8517475). Which also can upload all your photos...
I just wish OneDrive worked. I tried uploading 60k photos or so (less than 100GB)... OneDrive wouldn't even START the upload, and choked at 0.0kb uploaded. And even if it had started, OneDrive has a ridiculously low 20k file limit. I don't know why Microsoft has these weird bugs when everyone else seems to have it together.
With OneDrive and Amazon offering unlimited storage, it can't be long until Google and Dropbox (whose clients actually work) offer the same. But Google had better step up soon. I really don't see why I should continue to pay for GDrive when Amazon bundles unlimited storage with my already-essential Prime membership.
"I am still working on the best way to access the data without disconnecting the drive from the Raspberry Pi every time I want to add/remove something."
It sounds like he's putting the data on the USB drives from other computers, not from the RPi.
