Use this guide to replace right SSD on your Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 15ACH6.
Before you perform this repair, if at all possible, back up your existing SSD. If you are replacing the SSD where your operating system is installed, familiarize yourself with a disk cloning utility so you’ll be ready to migrate your data to the new SSD.
Also note that the right SSD can only fit a M.2 2242 SSD.
Be sure to completely power off and unplug your laptop. Make sure the laptop is not in standby, sleep, or hibernation mode.
