Introduzione

Vai al passo 1

This guide will walk you through the process of replacing the SSD in your Dell G15-5510 Gaming laptop.

Your laptop might not come with a standoff bracket to install an additional SSD. In this case, you'll need to purchase one.

Before you perform this repair, back up your existing SSD if possible. If you’re replacing the SSD where your operating system is installed, familiarize yourself with a disk cloning utility so you’ll be ready to migrate your data to the new SSD.

Thanks for the guide. I have the same laptop. I bought this laptop for work. I'm a game designer and create 3d character models for video games. There is a shortage of specialists in this field right now. It's good that there are services like DevotedCG, this platform unites top art professionals and a team of ADs and Producers who curate their work.
