    Thank you so much! Your video gave me the confidence to do this on my own. Installed 8gb stick and M.2 SSD. There is a click when the drive is seated. I used a guitar pick to gently open the case. Awesomeness!

    Why would you have to upgrade the MvMe ssd if it brand new just bought it today? Does that void that warranty and the return policy on the laptop ?? Wgu not just buy the laptop with the bigger 1TB ssd drive??

    Hello, Sir. I just wanted to ask if I could install the new SSD directly into the laptop's motherboard and run the cloning afterwards or should I do the cloning first using an SSD enclosure or an adapter? Buying an adapter is not on my budget yet. 😅

    I tried using the Samsung Data Migration software with a USB enclosure, as he did because I only had the single M.2 but it would not see the new 970 EVO Plus drive using the tool...I could see the drive in Device Manager and initialize the 970 but could not use the software for the migration, I had to use Macrium Reflect......

    Hi. Yes HP and most of the manufacturers will tell users their laptop is not user upgradeable. I use Corsair and Timetec ram mostly. Crucial, samsung or WD blue, or ADATA XPG are good brands for SSD. Dale

    Have you any opinions about Acronis True Image? I have only failures with the crucial P2 cloning. Then I learn on their site that for laptops, they suggest Make a bootable rescue usb thumb drive, new drive in the computer, original in the external usb 3 adapter and then proceed. 😞 Fail.--- so with Macrium, similar reverse clone? Or try as you have. Also read many have more success with create complete backup then restore to the new drive. 🤓 Again Fail. (Envy X360) I will give Macrium a try and look for a reply soon. 🤠
