Ensure that you always use ESD protection when working inside the computer. To begin, loosen the three captive screws that secure the base cover to the palm-rest and keyboard assembly.
Then, remove the four remaining screws that secure the base cover. Pry the base cover from the top-left corner, and then continue to work on the sides to open the base cover. Lift the base cover off the palm-rest and keyboard assembly. Peel the tape that secures the battery cable to the system board and disconnect the battery cable. Turn the computer over and open the display.
Press and hold the power button for 15 seconds to ground the computer and drain the flea power. After draining the flea power, close the display, and turn the computer over. Remove the screw that secures the SSD to the SSD bracket.
Slide and lift the SSD from the M.2 card slot on the system board. You have successfully removed the M.2 2230 solid-state drive. Now, let’s install the M.2 2230 solid-state drive. Align the notch on the SSD with the tab on the slot and slide it at an angle. Replace the screw that secures the SSD to the SSD bracket.
Re-connect the battery-cable connector to the system board and adhere the tape to the battery. Re-install the base cover by aligning and placing the base cover on the palm-rest and keyboard assembly. Press the edges and sides of the base cover until it snaps into place.
Tighten the three captive screws. And replace the four screws that secure the base cover to the palm-rest and keyboard assembly. You can now reconnect all peripherals. To install the micro-SD card, insert the microSD card into its slot until it clicks into place.
