Upgrading my Dell XPS 15 9570! [SSD RAM & Wi-Fi] | The Tech Chap

[@Thetechchap]

Hi Chaps! Thanks for all your comments - Quick update: 1) If you're doing this upgrade, you could go for the newer Intel 9260 Wi-Fi card (faster, BT 5.), I already had a 8265 laying around so I wanted to keep costs down (and still improve my Wi-fi reliability) 2) Some of you are saying I re-connected the black/white antenna wires incorrectly on the Wi-Fi chip, in fact the Killer card required them to be the opposite way around compared to the Intel. Which is why I reconnected them in a different way. 3) Be very, VERY careful with the two phillips-head screws under the flap. They are extremely soft and easy to thread. 4) You can unplug the battery before doing upgrades if you need to, better to be safe than sorry, but it's not absolutely necessary. 5) Here's a link for the wallpaper: imgur.com/gallery/Ytp5l Hope you enjoyed the video! Cheers :)

[@TheoWerewolf]

I just want to say how happy it makes me to see a KZbinr who does 4K video editing who isn't using a Mac. It's not that I don't have an issue with Macs - but the sheer unity of video edit types who simply assume "Video editing? You need a Mac!' is so frustrating. Nice to see someone doing the same thing with a Windows 10 system.

Going from hdd to sata ssd has most differences that i feel. From sata ssd to nvme, although it is faster, somehow i didnt feel it as fast as hdd to sata ssd (its definitely faster though, the whole read/write takes less time. Its just not felt as fast as hdd to sata ssd)

[@FoxxFire]

It's a small detail but it's really cool that you showed the ENTIRE process, including after installing the new SSD. Most youtube videos don't show that part. I haven't used Windows in a while, and reinstalling Windows 7 on my old Alienware desktop was NOT that easy after I replaced the mechanical hard drive with a 2.5" old school SSD. It's nice to see that if I actually opt for a new windows laptop for my daughter or something (since most schools use windows), it will be easy to upgrade the machine. TU for the helpful video.

[@sarathipal9833]

I think it's worth always removing the connection of the battery before removing any parts from laptop which might damage the motherboard..

[@rightpadding]

This. The moment he started screwing the m.2 SSD, i said is it better to remove the battery first? This is just in case there is a residual power from the battery (even if the laptop is turned off), that may cause damage to your components.

[@prringa6099]

@@rightpadding I don't see any way a plugged in battery would cause damage just by changing the SSD ... "Just for safety reasons" is a valid argument, but he's not disassembling the whole laptop.

[@nadtz]

I cant imagine how many laptops I've tinkered inside of, once the trend towards internal batteries became a thing I stopped caring about unplugging them and I (nor anyone I work with) has ever had a safety issue. Ok I'm being a little glib there but honestly if you are just swapping cards and you fry something something else is wrong with the system as that should not happen. Some laptops let you access memory/ssd without even opening the laptop in which case you would have to take the whole thing apart to do what you are talking about to perform what would otherwise be a 3 minute upgrade.

[@prringa6099]

@@nadtz Exactly. The a plugged in battery normally can't cause any issues. What can cause issues, however, is static charge of your own body. That can sometimes end badly.

[@nadtz]

@@prringa6099 Yep. we alwaays grounded ourselves when we were working on the bench(es) though once a long time ago I did see a computer get zapped.

[@ryankeeling93]

Tip for those looking to install a traditional SSD into their laptops (possible for m.2 nvme SSD as well, but potentially more finicky) connect your SSD up to your desktop PC (If you have one) and use macrium reflect to copy the contents of your desktops storage onto the new drive, then install the drivers for your laptop into your new SSD and delete anything not needed on it. Then install into laptop with a ready to go SSD, with the same setup as your desktop PC !

[@piotrd.4850]

For more advanced users: if you want to use hardware encryption on Samsung, you have to magically enable it *before* installing OS, effectively, running it through Samsung Magician on other already installed PC :> Screws are too soft, so proceed carefully. Some people re-paste CPUs with better paste, undervolt CPU while at it and put additonal cooling pads on SSD, power transistors. Fan cleaning isn't bad idea either.

[@novicetech1]

Thank you. I just purchased the 9570 today. It hasn't even arrived yet but I already know I'm going to update the RAM and the SSD. After watching this, I might upgrade the wifi chip as well. Thank you so much for this video. Now I'm confident that I won't break my brand new PC. Thanks again!

[@mavricxx]

Very nice but not a full tuorial , I just wish you had shown how you did the backup to the new NVME SSD. Changing out the components is easy but the backup, cloning or however you do it is the most crucial part.

Great video and you killed me with the: 'after the 42 million updates' phrase .

[@nevaiddd]

Can you please make a proper video on how you installed windows after replacing everything

[@Amoral-uu3nf]

Its fairly easy, There are 2 options - 1)after installing an ssd plugin a usb drive with windows on it, and then open up the boot menu and select your usb boot device and then select the drive you want to install it on after that the screen will turn black, thats when you need to unplug the usb, then the windows install is really easy. 2)You can use a program like Macrium Reflect or Samsung's other option to clone the drive, you will need your old drive and a new drive as well .......you can look it up on KZbin. hope it helped

[@joefraser855]

There's nothing more satisfying than upgrading a laptop😝😝😝😝😝😍😍😍😍😏

[@1wor1d]

With any upgrade like this, once you take the back off, take a photo, for 2 reasons, if you make an error you can see how the connections were when you took the back off. Second reason take a photo after you have finished the upgrade and rename the photo file something like "Dell XPS 9570 upgrade" so you can search and find it again then a year or 2 later you can see what upgrades you did or didn't do as sometimes you may forget what you did.

[@DamienScantamburlo]

Careful my man! When you opened the XPS, we can see clearly that the Killer elite wifi Card has white cable on MAIN, and black cable on AUX. So for DELL : - white cable = connect to MAIN - black cable = connect to AUX When you are dealing with the INTEL wifi card, the color are exactly inverted! -> You have to plug the white cable to MAIN and black cable to AUX for the new wifi card.

[@connormc08]

Great video , I recently had to open up my XPS15 as the screen broke. Dell quoted 800 quid for a new 4k display. Instead I took a risk and bought it off eBay for 200 and replaced it myself! KZbin is great for learning how to do these things!

[@matzidotcom]

Those doing this upgrade....might consider using Samsung’s 970 EVO clone used in oem machines (dell, HP, and Lenovo), which is the Samsung “pm981”. These can be had in 512gb and 1tb sizes, and can be had for under $75 usd used on eBay for the 1tb model. Just another choice.

[@Dmitryzakharov]

I noticed how careful you are when you open the lid, you also hold it on the sides not in the middle. Have you noticed that the touch screen glass moves forward on top of the lid if you hold the lid in the middle while opening. Of course you must not press against the touch screen while opening, basically the finger only has to touch the plastic cover. Dell changed once the whole display for me because of that under warranty. In my case the glass moved forward by 1-2 mm. The whole display is so thin that it bends under the resistance of hinges.

[@姜宇轩-e2t]

Actually you can use the dell official tool to make a recovery USB disk to bring factory image to the new SSD, and after that it is still possible to have factory recover function on the new drive, that would be more safe and more convenient than reinstall the Windows 10 every time.

[@DanielRodriguez-fg5ll]

useful video but a minor points, 1) I found it useful not to put the screws back in until you boot and check everything is OK. it is very annoying to have to re-remove the screws if RAM is not properly placed/clipped into place. 2) I am skeptical of the day to day impact of the storage speed. it would have been 10x more informative if you had done a 4k edit and render, before the upgrade, and then one after. arguably, the end of the day work speed will be driven by the weakest link of the machine, in this case it could be the throttling of the CPU, and less so of the storage speed.

My new XPS 15 has been shipped to the Dell Repair facility once again. I have NEVER been able to use the Dell XPS 15 for work due to the setup, diagnosis, trouble shooting, time lost while in transit to Dell, time lost while being repaired by Dell. Dell has not delivered an XPS 15 to me as advertised and purchase on the Dell online store in March 2019. Currently, my XPS 15 is missing these key advertised features: 1. Fingerprint Scanner 2. CPU Cooling Fan 3. Functioning Security Login (PIN/Password/Fingerprint Options) 4. SD Card Reader Functionality. Dell has not delivered Warranty Services as advertised and purchased in March 2019. Dell has been give 6 months to provide warranty services. I have personally spent over 50 hours baby sitting Dell support teams to diagnose/repair the system. My personal billing rate is $175/hour of which Dell has made no effort to provide reasonable compensation. The system has never been serviced properly even though it has been shipped to the Dell repair center two times. The system has been diagnosed by Dell with a failed SD Card Reader, a failed motherboard and a failed CPU cooling fan. I have personally diagnosed the XPS 15 with an "unrecognized fingerprint reader"

It's better to upgrade on your own since you can sell your previous hardware, costing you less money in the end and having better performance. Main reason I think most manufacturers make everything soldered to the motherboard.

If you're doing this on a different laptop, refer to the service manual, it often details the screw sizes used.

Nice video, I decided to upgrade mine, so I paid up and got the 1TB 970 pro. Then I found this video and decided to get the Intel AX200 wifi-6 chip, then I got the tiny bit faster Crucial Ballistic 32 GB 2,666 MHz with CAS 16 timing, for a tiny bit better latency. I'm not sure how well the RAM will work, and you forgot to run through the RAM setup and tests and benches. FYI, I seen some phillip screw issues. I have ran into this in the past many time and have an assortment of screwdrivers. I find you need to make sure the whole phillips tip is fully filling the screw on all 4 corners. I find most tiny phillips tips are too narrow, so you may need a bigger one than you think. But always look closely for a tight fit. Also, make sure the screw driver tip is sharp and no rounded a little, or it will strip out the head. This is always a thorn in my side. Make sure the tip is in perfect 90-degree angle, if it is offset too much it will also strip it out. Sorry for this long tip on screws, but it is so important.

Couple of things: 1. too bad about that 32 GB of RAM being CL19. Should've gone with CL15 at most, which is available, and usually only a few quid more. CL & CAS ratings are overhyped quite a bit, but still, with large video editing projects, the difference between CL19 and 15 can start to get significant. 2. Those cooling fans look really filthy. Time for a good cleaning with some compressed air.
