Dell Latitude 5580 HDD to SSD Upgrade

Hello all, I'm looking to replace my mechanical HDD for an SSD drive.  Do I need to purchase a different Dell drive cable for the SSD drive?  If so, anyone have the proper link?

I believe this model also supports the M.2.   Thoughts?

5580 supports SSD M.2 SATA / PCIe

or 2.5” sata HDD/ssd

you do not need to buy a different drive cable for 2.5 sata ssd.  It is all included in laptop. Swapping 2.5 hdd to 2.5 sata ssd is direct drop in.  M.2 ssd may need a M2 2 mm screw if not included in laptop.

swapping hdd to 2.5 ssd: connect the hard drive cable (#1) to the connector on the hard drive and on the system board.
