Replace the built-in SSD in 2017 Spectre x360

[Vjeko13]

Hi everyone,

I would like to replace the built-in 1TB SSD in my Spectre x360 with a 2TB one (namely, Samsung MZ V6E2 S24 A450BW SSD 960 Evo Nvme)

Two questions:

1. Is this possible at all? I mean, is the 2TB compatible with the M.2 slot inside my laptop?

2. Is this something I can do myself without losing warranty? (I know how to do it, it's only that I don't want to open the laptop up myself if this automatically voids my warranty).

Thanks!

Here is the Manual:

Yes it absolutely will support the 2 TB NVME M.2. (You must have robbed a bank to buy one). 

The warranty will be fine as long as you cause no damage in the process. Good luck and post back results please.

Thanks for the quick reply.

Yes, it's an expensive piece of hardware, but when you need space, you need space 🙂

I'll go on and try this, and let you know how it went.

Hi,

May I answer Q2 first: Please check the following manual:

     http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c05357578.pdf

This work is for  Authorized Service Provider parts that implies it would void warranty when doing yourself. I always say: warranty is a grey area, when no problem then no problem but when thing goes wrong then vendors (including HP)  may not honor warranty.

For Q1: HP uses parts from few different vendors, as you can see on page 29, HP uses different part numbers for different machines. My suggestion: use Device manager to check what is the current 1TB SSD and buy new 2TB SSD from same vendor.

Regards.

Hello,

Do you happen to have a link for the 2018 Spectre X360 15" model? I am replacing the SSD on my machine and would love to get the manual for it.

Thank you kindly.
