Thanks David! Will be doing this eventually when I get my hands on my 5520. I didn't actually know ssd's needed a heatsink, I think I just straight installed them in my current 17 R4 laptop.

Hey I have a doubt does the g15 5520 lacks mounting bracket only like the 5515 or the whole port is missing?

Or better yet, thread some coated wire about the same thickness or less as the white wire on the network card through existing clip holes and twist tighten it around sdd using a set of pliers

It wont be a problem if I adquire and install a SSD M.2 2280 without the heatsink? Also, the Kingston Fury Renegade NvMe PCle M.2 2280 SSD of 2TB is a good option and can fit on this laptop?

I have the 5525 and don’t have the raid option in my bios. It looks completely different and it’s not detecting the 1tb I put in it. Any suggestions?

Looks like the mounting bracket does nothing but provide a thread for the screw. Drill a small hole in existing metal frame at same spot and use a self tapping screw with a washer for same result?

You save me money I was going to buy a more space 2230 ssd the same included in the laptop but I doesn't know you can remove the holder of the disc and put far to have space to the 2280 I ordered right away when I look it fits wow now I have 2tb awesome and have more w/r speeds

what is the name of the part you use to screw the disc to the silver to buy and have two discs not just one

There seems to be 3 system recovery partitions on the SSD that came with my 5525 so if i install the new ssd how am i supposed to make the recovery partitions and store the recovery image on the partitions.

do you only download the "Critical" drivers?

Its unclear from the video if the copper plate is directly on the SSD or if you use a themal pad.

Soooooooooo what happens if I buy the missing bracket and put an M.2 Gen4 2TB 80mm SSD in the 'empty' slot? Will it work? I am getting at 'Is this a hardware issue' (easy fix with mounting bracket and heatsink) or is this a 'built-in software limitation' where the port is actually rendered unusable by Dell regardless if an SSD is plugged in or not. Basically, if I plug one in will I get a 'D' drive?
