Title
Microsoft Surface Pro X SSD Port Replacement
Introduction
Follow this guide to remove and replace the SSD port on a Microsoft Surface Pro X.
'''Warning:''' Make sure to remove the SSD from the Surface before starting any repairs. This will disconnect the battery and prevent damage to the Surface.
'''For your safety, discharge the battery below 25% before disassembling your Surface.''' This reduces the risk of a dangerous thermal event if the battery is accidentally damaged during the repair. If your battery is swollen, [[What to do with a swollen battery|take appropriate precautions|new_window=true]].
