The only thing you can do to give it a bit more zip is replace the HDD to a SSHD or better yet a SSD. Just be careful! Your system is only a SATA II (3.0 Gb/s) so make sure the drive you install is able to run at this I/O speed. Review the specs sheet if it doesn’t list SATA II or the data rate 3.0 Gb/s don’t buy it!
Maybe, it’s time to get a used 2011 21.5” model. Thats what I would do!
