Introduction
This guide is to replace a broken or full solid-state drive in the Lenovo ThinkPad T480s laptop. A solid-state drive (SSD) is a storage device used to store data for the user and the computer. This device stores data like a USB flash drive. The difference is this device is installed within the computer and is a necessity for the computer to run. If the SSD is not working or not installed the computer will not boot. Therefore if the SSD is not working it must be replaced.
 The SSD should also be replaced if it is full. The SSD is full when there is no more space to save files or applications. If the SSD is full the user can save some space by deleting some unwanted items. If space cannot be made then the SSD needs to be upgraded to one with a larger capacity.
 There are several different types of SSD’s so it may be difficult to determine which one to buy. For this fix an SSD of type M.2. is required. This type is referring to a form factor. That just means its the shape of the device and how it connects to the computer. Therefore, if the SSD is not type M.2. it will not work for this laptop.
 
It’s important to back up your current SSD if possible. Make sure you create a back up of your data before starting this fix.
