Whether to replace the memory storage of you laptop with an upgraded memory drive, or to replace one that may be damaged, this guide will instruct on how to remove and replace the SSD (Solid State Drive) in the Dell XPS 15 9560.
Some laptops allow for a combination of an HDD (Hard Disk Drive) and an SSD or either one for their memory storage. SSDs have a reputation for being more powerful and smaller than HDDs, and they do not use any moving parts to access data like an HDD would.
Before beginning, make sure the laptop is off and the laptop is disconnected from any power source.
