I'm maybe slightly surprised that you could put in a 256 Gb. I went to a couple of websites that said that in many instances the highest that one could go is 128 Gb. Good job!

Dude! This video is awesome! I cannot help but wonder how many folks got an M.2 before they realized they were replacing an MSATA. And why on earth would anyone install windows on these suckers when clearly a Linux distro will work better? But I digress. Note: I have an older Chromebook which I have installed the following: Linux Lite, Xubuntu, and Zorin. Getting gutsy enough to double the storage so that I can run Mint or Ubuntu with ease. It will end up being the machine I use most bc its compact. Thank you for the video on reinstalling Chrome OS, as well.

Thank you for making this video. It's really informative. I've been trying to fix my Lenovo S330 Chromebook. It wouldn't power on twice within the last several days, and each time, I had to do the special button combination (escape + refresh + power) and then a recovery from a usb flash drive. I was able to fix it both times, but it's only a matter of time before it will do it again. Could this be a flash drive issue or something else? The second time I recovered it with a usb flash drive, I was able to do it without plugging it into power. So it seems to me that the battery is most likely ok, considering it still often shows a green and or orange light after a week of non-use. But this and one other video have been lifesavers, since fixing these things during covid-19 pandemic is not easy, and there aren't any Lenovo repair centers anywhere nearby. And, unfortunately, I strongly suspect that the cost of this repair would most likely exceed what I paid for this Chromebook ($219) back in July of 2019.

A lot of that will depend on the operating system and whether or not anyone has developed drivers for the touch screen. With that much RAM, it should run pretty smoothly, but remember, you might only have a dual core processor, so it might still be somewhat limited, but for daily use of browsing the internet or writing code or that sort of thing, it should be fine.

You're going to have to open your Chromebook and see what it has and then buy a newer version of that drive with (hopefully) more storage capacity

If you've already installed the Mr Chromebox Bios, you can swap the hard drive with no issue. You'll have to reinstall Windows on the new drive, but you won't have to go through the process of flashing the BIOS again as the BIOS is stored on a separate chip on the motherboard.

@DBTechYT
@DBTechYT Жыл бұрын
Everything I'm about to say is speculation. I don't know if your Chromebook has a compatible processor. I don't know if your Chromebook has a replaceable hard drive. Even if it is replaceable, I don't know if your Windows 10 SSD is comptible with your Chromebook. Chromebooks often use m.2 style SATA SSDs and not 2.5" SATA SSDs. Yours may be different, but I have no way of knowing. Even if everything is compatible and you're able to put the Windows 10 SSD in the Chromebook, you would have to remove the SSD with ChromeOS on it from the device. That won't "break Chrome", but it will make it so that ONLY Windows will load since you've removed the drive with the Chrome Operating System on it. You're going to have to do your own research on whether or not anything you have is compatible. And, no I won't do the research for you if you tell me your Chromebook model and/or its specs.

Oh, and one other thing to watch out for on M.2 drives...LENGTH! In this case, for sure, LENGTH DOES MATTER! The Kingspec NT-256 is a 42-mm drive (defined in the '2242' numbering)...I'm really bad about ordering Western Digital NGFF M.2 2280 sizes...and I have to catch myself and check dimensions, before clicking 'order'...or there goes 2-weeks waiting for the return to credit, just so I can order the RIGHT dimensions! Again, MOST Chromebooks take the 42-mm long M.2 NGFF format...2242, though some have a clear socket to accept the 60-mm length (to my knowledge, NONE will accept the 80-mm lengths!)

Something to be aware of, that MANY OEMs (let alone YT'ers) leave out...is that NOT ALL eMMC M.2 is created equal! There are, in fact, SEVERAL form factors...and NOTHING sucks worse than to buy a M.2 drive, only to find that the one you NEED is NOT the one you purchased! In this case, it is an NGFF M.2 eMMC 2280 256-drive...sells for about $40. You can step up to 512-Gb for another $30...and if you throw in some LPDDR3 Ram (some can take 8-GB, some can expand to 16-GB in 2-stick totals), you NOW have a real laptop that can run Winsucks as well as (the far better) Linux (just make an 'install' USB, and boot into it...it takes care of the rest, depending on distro).

Hola. Me sucedió un problema grande en mi chromebook c720. Le cambié la BIOS y le instalé windows 10. Por defecto tenía un disco SSD de 16gb y se lo cambié por uno de 128 Gb. Desde ahí tuve problemas porque la BIOS no iniciaba desde windows ya que cambié la SSD y para desgracia se quedó en pantalla negra con un mensaje que dice: grafics console started. La chromebook quedo muerta y no se que hacer en este caso.

@@DBTechYT Yes. Try new things. But with that comes the benefit of commentary from your audience. The majority won't likely bother to complain about some particulars, and/or the majority are de-sensitized to various things, but those with an eye for improvement and a passion to see a better world, will. Often, you can accommodate a sensitive minority without offending the majority.
