Introduction
Use this guide to replace or upgrade the secondary SSD in your Galaxy Book Pro 15" Laptop.
Before you begin, refer to the Samsung PC Repair Guide for safety information.
For your safety, discharge the battery below 25% before disassembling your device. This reduces the risk of a thermal event if the battery is accidentally damaged during the repair. If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.
Note: The secondary SSD slot only allows for M.2 2280 SSDs.
