If you are replacing a component, remove the existing component before performing the installation procedure.
About this task
NOTE This procedure applies only to computers shipped with an M.2 2280 solid-state drive installed in M.2 slot one.
NOTE Depending on the configuration ordered, your computer may support an M.2 2230 solid-state drive or an M.2 2280 solid-state drive in M.2 slot one.
NOTE M.2 slot two supports one PCIe Gen3 x4 NVMe or SATA solid-state drive (M.2 2230 or M.2 2280) or one Intel Optane Memory H10 with Solid State Storage.
