Laptop not turning on after battery was unplugged/plugged is a feature to protect from static electricity. It will reset after plugging the adaptor and pressing the power button for 20 seconds (depends on how the manufacturer implements this). Anyways, the way you handled the upgrade was awesome enough if not perfectly executed. You definitely followed some precautions like removing the batteries. And if a heatsink is provided, always make use of it as electronics will degrade over time due to heat... so the heatsink will always help whether you are gaming or not, as long as it will still fit in the laptop (profile is not so tall to create a bulge in the casing/cover).

FYI, that "factory seal" its not a "Warranty void if removed" seal, what it means is that factory approved to be shipped and has not been tampered with since shipped. In case you think that you upgraded your PC and warranty is voided that is NOT the case, just make sure to keep your factory hardware in case you need to test and discard 3rd part hardware issue, if the issue is still present you can still contact MSI.

Hey you did great man, keep your confidence up. First time I tried to do something like this I was 12 and literally started a little fire because I didn’t know what I was doing. Much props to you, saw this in my feed and figured I’d check it out. ❤

It's like putting a timing cover on bro, screw size doesn't matter! But seriously, I'm a gearhead and computer geek. You did a great job. The "heatspreader" you put on the m.2 drive, helps to spread the heat better. You had 3 chips that heat up, putting that heatspreader on helps to evenly pull the heat from all the chips and spread it to a larger surface. The not booting up til it was plugged in was already explained below. But this is also an old video, I just wanted to give you props because I wasn't sure myself of what needed to be taken apart as I strictly work on desktops. I would have left the top part on and probably broke sh!t!! lol

Missing a crucial step - go to 'create and format new partitions/hd' and create a new drive from unused partition for the new drive to show up. I was close to opening the whole thing up again, thinking that I installed it incorrectly.

Great video - many thanks - Keep up the good work. Please add links to the upgrade parts you bought in the description :-) Probably I'm an idiot but it took me a while to feel confident that these systems use 2280 (size) NVMe's. I'm still confused whether a heat pad should be used between the SSD & motherboard, though. Having a drive which came with a heat spreader for its other side is probably a good thing. For what its worth, I don't think the hinge cover *needs* to be removed for this upgrade. I plan on not removing mine because it looks like a right fiddly b***h to get off & even more so to get back on. Particularly good to know about the PSU needing to be connected before it would boot :-O That would sure make me sick XD There's a tiny (reset?) switch underneath which can be pressed with a paper clip or similar - or possibly by hand even when the bottom case is off. In only 1 of the 5 KZread vid's I've watched on this model, they pressed it. Maybe that would have made it boot 1st time without the PSU? Anyway not only was this vid the top KZread result, it has excellent A/V quality, a clear & charismatic host who manages to be both not an IT nerd but handles the components with care & gets the job done well so I thought I'd give this longer-than-usual comment :-) Again, many thanks, man!

Much appriciated.

Hello there! Just a question. I was thinking about buying a second SSD drive for my MSI GF65 Thin Gaming Laptop. It has 16 GB of crucial ram, and 512Gb of SSD. I was thinking of maybe getting between 1 and 4 Tb of space, or maximumly, 2Tb. I also saw you yourself had to watch a couple of videos to get the extra space ready by formatting the SSD, and hope maybe you can help me with that in the future if you can. I was be careful with this one, cause I got it at a super duper good price and know if i wanted to get another 16Gb of ram, it'll have to be crucial since I am kind of on a budget, haha.

How much Internal Memory can this laptop handle? I don't mean RAM, I mean actual internal storage. Can I put in 2 sticks of 512GB SSD?

I'm not sure I just knew the 2666 would work. You might try contacting MSI to see if it would work. Thanks for the view!

@@TylerPotter That does make you wonder, doesn't it? Most laptops these days appear to come with small amount of RAM and equally small SSD, where for gamers, an upgrade is a necessity rather than a luxury. At the same time, if you upgrade through the vendor, they charge you 2-5 times more for the upgraded SSD/RAM you are getting. So, most people end up upgrading themselves - thereby voiding the warranty. In other words - it all feels a tad like a scam, as far as warranty is concerned.

I have the same laptop, I'm wondering what's the top limit for the frequency on the memory RAM? I mean I could install a memory above 2666 Mhz ?
