A solid-state drive is a secondary storage device, also called a semiconductor storage device, a solid-state device, or a solid-state disk. This is one of two secondary storage devices in your HP EliteDesk 800 G4. The other, called the storage drive, will also be removed during this guide.
You may want to upgrade your solid-state drive for more storage or replace a nonfunctional drive. Luckily, this process is fairly simple for an EliteDesk 800 G4. The specific model we will work with in this guide will be an EliteDesk 800 G4 (35W).
Before starting this process, make sure your device is fully powered down and disconnected. Also make sure you are wearing an anti-static wristband to protect yourself and your device against electro-static discharge. If you've never used an anti-static wristband one before, iFixit has an easy guide on how to set one up.
