Excellent 👍 love your teardowns of laptops

Thanks for your videos. I don't live in the area, but I feel like next time I'm passing thru I'll want to stop by and say hi :) Keep it up!

Excellent ! I am thinking of buying one of these and I have a1 TB Samsung M.2 SSD plus a Samsung SSD sata. Nice to know how easy it is to access everything and how easy it is to do. Unlike my wife's old Acer i3 which was a pain to disconnect the ribbon cables for the keyboard in order to get to upgrade anything. Great job here .... thanks a lot !

Thanks for doing this I'm thinking of doing a second nvme ssd upgrade for my own nitro 5 this was extremely helpful

Great video! Thanks! I'm going to do the same to my son's laptop. Really helps to see it all first!

Honestly your a hero! I recently bought a samsung 980 pro 2tb with a big discount, thought it would be easy as put in in the machine en bam use it, boy was i wrong. It took hours of forums and such to still end up emty handed until your video came along with the disk management bit, followed your steps and now it works like a charm. So anyway huge thanks!

The inside of that Nitro 5 looks very similar to the Predator, 2 fans, 2 RAM slots, 2 NVME slots, a SATA blank, etc. Good work. Looks like a great laptop.

Thanks for this vid!

Awesome content! :)

Sure would be nice if laptop manufacturers would start making their PC modular, so if you wanted to upgrade, just pop out the old part and insert the new one (sort of like the old hot swapping card readers, optical and hard drives).

Can you please do an ssd with a heatskink and ddr5 upgrade, just curious to see whether u can upgrade ddr5 on a laptop since I am getting a 12th Gen laptop and want to upgrade from 16gb to 32gb(I am aware that u can't upgrade from ddr4 to ddr5 as they have difference sockets and pins to connect to.) I want to see at least if you can add a heatsink to a laptop or upgrade the ssd with the heatsink.

I have same computer with a i5 10300h and a rtx2060 6gb. Ram upgraded to 32gb 3200 and additional ssd nvme 2280 prior to the stock wd 512 installed. Runs like so good. And with a cooling base better too. Great afford. Oh and a Intel wifi ax210 new card installed

hello, can you tell me why you transferred the old ssd to another slot? I also installed a new ssd but a different slot. But for some reason, the old ssd heats up in games, + I had to turn off the turbo boost. the temperature rises to 50-60 degrees. Although the second ssd is always stable 32-42. If you answer I will be grateful. Thank you in advance. (Written via google translate)

Excellent, I have an515-45, i want to install 2nd ssd as first is only 256gb, will my laptop support samsung 2tb ssd with heatsink layer already built in ssd or should i use without heat sink as acer body cover is already having one?

Hi. The 990 Pro is a good choice. Your laptop is 12th gen intel, with pci-e 4.0, so in my opinion, the 990 pro is one of the fastest nvme ssd out there. Go for it.

You should have left the included M.2 in drive one and put the new one in drive 2, im pretty sure it comes with a gen 4 M.2 so the M.2 your replacing it with cannot be noticeably faster hence just put the 1tb M.2 in drive 2 location and no reinstalling windows just initialize the drive.
