Dell Latitude E6420 Upgrading to a New SSD

Поділитися
Вставка
  • Опубліковано 27 лип 2019
  • This is a video about upgrading another laptop. This time it is DELL Latitude E6420 in which I replace an old mechanical hard drive for a new SSD (solid-state drive). Replacing is so easy that everyone is able to do that without any problems. In the video I show you in detail how I replace the old one for WD Blue 3D NAND SSD 500GB 2.5". So, don’t throw away your laptops.

    I upgraded to a Samsung 256gb SSD in my E6420 and topped out the ram to max. I was lucky though, I got the top spec core i7. Thing still burns through most tasks with ease it’s just gotta be plugged in cause battery is 12 years old and I need to re-apply a better thermal compound on the heat-pipe that this model likes.
    This was the notebook that inspired what would become the famous Dell XPS 13.. it started here with this chonkey, magnesium bad boy. Literally still works to this day although is use a much newer laptop now.

    Lol I didn't know replacing a laptop hard drive was so easy, I thought there were cables and motherboard connectors involved etc. I never opened up or even owned a laptop before, just bought a second hand one to learn Linux. Startup is very slow on the hard drive, so the ssd should help a lot.

Only then It were able to be upgrated in lot of ways, like adding more RAM, since the 6 Gb it actually has, to the top of 16; and the increased of the SSD of the video also. For the lats, I would like to answer to yo, if making this changes the PC would be Ok for be used by developments functions, as running the visual studio, react js, etc.. Very thank you from Bsas.-

One comment says: "I can now confirm that the Intel i7 2630QM chip does work in the E6420". So 2760QM could work as well because they are the same family www.notebookcheck.net/2630QM-vs-2670QM_1517_2850.247596.0.html#:~:text=Compared%20to%20the%202630QM%2C%20the,and%20the%20VT%2Dd%20functions.&text=The%20Core%20i7%2D2675QM%20in,1200MHz%20for%20the%20GPU%20part.

Myslím, že záleží natom, či máš priamo instalačku konkrétnej jazykovovej verzie alebo máš anglickú a tú prepneš na inú jazykovú verziu. V prvom prípade to vidíš tak ako na videu a v druhom prípade tak ako to máš ty. Predpokladám, že aj tak za chviľu prejdeš na WIN10 alebo na niečo iné takže sa to stane irelevantné. Zdar!
