Introduzione

Vai al passo 1

This guide will walk you through the process of replacing the right SSD in your Dell G15-5511 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.
