Note: The following instructions are a general guideline for installing the SSD and serve as a complement to your system’s owner manual.

LAPTOP INSTALLATION

  1. Power off the system, disconnect all power cables, and remove the battery.

  2. Locate the hard drive access panel; unscrew and remove the panel.

  3. Disconnect and remove the existing storage drive from the drive bay (refer to your system’s user manual).

  4. Remove all brackets and connectors from your existing storage drive and install them on the SSD (if necessary).
    Note: If there is a proprietary connector and/or bracket on the existing storage drive, carefully remove it and connect it to the SSD. Systems will vary and these items may or may not be present.

  5. Insert the SSD into the drive bay while carefully aligning the SSD with the SATA* connectors.

  6. Secure the SSD in the drive bay. Reinstall the access panel and insert the battery back into the system.

  7. Power on your system to verify a successful installation. For a boot drive, this is signified by the BIOS prompting OS installation. For a secondary drive, follow the formatting instructions below.
    Note: If the SSD will be your primary boot drive, please refer to your operating system’s user manual for further OS installation instructions. If this SSD will be used as a secondary drive, the drive must be formatted before use.

  • SATA 6Gbit/s is backwards compatible with SATA 3Gbit/s. However, connecting a SATA 6Gbit/s device to a SATA 3Gbit/s connection will result in reduced performance.
