SSD upgrade

[haider5]

Hello,

I have had my ProBook for over a year with 125GB SSD for my university. I need to upgrade the memory and wanted to know if my laptop's SSD will have to replaced or can I add an additional SSD on top of my existing one.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

No, to upgrade you will need to replace the 128 GB M2 SATA3 SSD with a higher capacity M2 SATA3 SSD. So you could insert a 1TB or more SSD.

Examples:

On page 30 of service manual you can see the steps to install the SSD

You can then reinstall the OS

and get your drivers from here

You could also clone the old SSD to the new one, but you will need an M2 to USB adapter

Hope it helps,
