About this task
NOTE: This procedure applies only to computers shipped with a M.2 2230 solid-state drive installed.
NOTE: The M.2 solid-state drive installed on your computer depends on the configuration ordered. The M.2 slot supports
one of the following solid-state drives:
● M.2 2230 solid-state drive
A mounting bracket for the M.2 2230 solid-state drive is required. The mounting bracket is provided if the M.2 2230
solid-state is shipped with the computer.
If you are replacing the M.2 2230 solid-state drive with a new M.2 2230 solid-state drive, use the existing mounting
bracket to install the latter.
● M.2 2280 solid-state drive
If you are replacing the M.2 2280 solid-state drive (shipped with the computer) with an M.2 2230 solid-state drive, a
mounting bracket for the M.2 2230 solid-state drive is required. Contact Dell support to purchase the mounting bracket
for the M.2 2230 solid-state drive.
