If this is the secondary disk (mine has an M2 primary for the OS), you may need to initialize the disk after installation. On Windows, go to 'Disk Management' (buried in the shambles of the partially-replaced 'Control Panel' in Windows 10 - though is findable via 'Start > Search'). You'll see something like "Disk 0 - uninitialized". From there you can initialize it. I chose the GPT option which is more modern and supposedly better. Then you'll need to create a 'Volume' and format it. I chose `exFAT` because it's more compatible with other OSs - I might want to set up a dual boot some day. Success! I was about to take the computer apart again to check if I'd plugged the cable in properly or something, or consider returning the disk as faulty. You do not get any notification from Windows that there's a new piece of hardware fitted. Hope this information helps someone else avoid that too. Thanks for the video. Gave me confidence to do the job myself.

[@grahambounds1928]

Very Good! Thank You!

[@BrueComputing]

Great video, crystal clear explanation Which is the SSD?

[@itmustbewhite]

7:59

[@BrueComputing]

The SSD is the M.2 'gumstick' drive.

[@jimward52]

Some laptops are a PITA to repair but this one looks easy. I have most of the parts except for the dvd/cd burner. For some odd reason, there's no new drive available, not even from Dell and no list of drives that will fit.

[@greatspirit]

Thank you. 10:00 your "clipped at the top" is so critical. What bit did you use for your screwdriver that you could unscrew and screw back all the screws with just one bit?

[@beingnad135]

can u explain the sofware part

Hey when u replaced the hardrive. U had a sata cable. I got a ? That sata cable on the other side where it goes. What is the name of the white plastic piece that clamps down and holds the ribbon in place. There a few wide ones and different looking ones. I need the one that goes on top of that sata cable. Anyway to order that? I don’t know what u call that. Thx

[@martinwiltshire305]

Hi, thanks for this video, it is really helpful. I have one question, if you fit an SSD, do you need to keep the original Hard drive

[@BrueComputing]

I always recommend retaining old hard drives or secure erasing them before disposal.

[@sukhjeetsingh2324]

Does this laptop support 1 TB nvme ssd? I checked online dell says it support upto 512GB nvme ssd.

1TB drives work fine. The support specs are purely because Dell never offered it with a 1TB drive.

[@diegodandaza4026]

When in about to install Windows I cannot see the nvme I can see it on windows but not during the installation process

You need the F6 driver for the chipset to load on the drive selection screen.

Hi, what hdd replacement do you recommend? Need to replace mine too. Huhu

[@lyferdi]

Great !! Is there any significant difference between Lithium Ion & Lithium polymer batteries? What's the best to go with?

[@richarda3659]

You don't really have a choice. The original Dell battery is LiPo and you should stay with that, but even if you get an aftermarket battery, it will still use LiPo chemistry.

[@thecoolnerds7915]

Can we use the same battery for the laptops under this model 5570?

[@richarda3659]

Okay, sooooo ... at the end of this video, you still have a 15.6" brick. Now how did you install Windows (or another OS) on the new SSD? BTW, with prices on storage dropping at the rate it has been, I'd recommend getting a 2TB hard drive. If you really only need 1TB, I'd get a 1TB 2.5" SATA SSD (not HDD), because even the cheapest available SSD radically outperforms any hard drive, and barely costs more.

[@abelcristiantimbalari7861]

Thanks! But what are the max specs ssd I can put in there?

2 TB

[@emcsquared9]

Thanks so much. This is super helpful. I want to upgrade my 2TB HDD to a 1TB SSD and have found a KZbin video which shows how to clone with Acronis software. I was then thinking of adding in a NVME boot drive as well. Do I need to clone anything on to the new boot drive or do I simply plug it in and hit F2 and ensure that the BIOS runs it? I can't find a simple video that explains the software bit of installing a new boot drive onto a laptop like this. Any help would be amazing. Thanks!

So I can replace my hdd with any ssd or is it specific and does the same goes wit a 32gb ddr4 ram with this computer?

You can fit any 2.5" SATA SSD in place of the hard drive, or add an M.2 2280 NVMe SSD in the M.2 slot. A pair of 16GB DDR4-2400 (or 2666) modules will give you 32GB. Suitable parts are linked in the description.
