2
Turn off the notebook power.
Disconnect all notebook power cables.
Turn the notebook upside down and remove the battery.
Locate the hard drive panel on the bottom of your notebook
(Refer to your user manual).
Unscrew and remove the panel.
If there is a tab on the existing hard drive, gently pull it up and then to
the outside to remove the hard drive from the bay.
If your hard drive attaches to your motherboard via a cable, hold
the cable’s connector - not the cable itself - and gently remove the
drive from it.
If any proprietary connector or spacer bracket is attached to your
existing hard drive, remove it and set it aside.
Remove the new PNY SSD from its packaging and attach the
connector or spacer bracket you removed in step 8. (This helps the
SSD t securely in the drive bay.)
Align the SATA connector pins on the SSD with the SATA connector
in the drive bay.
Slide the SSD rmly against the SATA connectors in the drive bay so
that there is no space where the SATA connection and the SSD align.
Reattach the hard drive panel and screws you removed in step 5.
Reinstall the battery.
Reattach the power cables.
Turn the notebook power on.
DONE! Enjoy your new PNY SSD and all its benets.

If you cloned your drive prior to installation, your system should
boot up normally. Otherwise, load your OS and drivers (Refer to
your notebook or OS user manual), as well as other programs, then
restore your data.
