Wait, I have this laptop but it didn’t come with the 8 GB SSD. Can I add it? Seeing as it’s the same model as his.
Hi. Thanks for this, but am I missing something. I just see the photo of the open laptop. Are there step-by-step instructions / guide to do the actual swap from HDD to SDD?
Hi, great tutorial, but i have a quest.
