Lenovo ThinkPad X390 Yoga SSD Replacement

Introducción

This guide will demonstrate how to remove and replace the SSD in a Lenovo ThinkPad X390 Yoga. The solid-state drive (SSD for short) acts as the main storage for the device. If the SSD is faulty, the device may not boot up, and must be replaced. Also, replacement is needed in order to upgrade an existing SSD to an SSD with more storage capacity. SSD’s may run slower with age, so a replacement can be done to achieve a faster boot time.

Before you begin the guide, be sure to power off your device and unplug it from an external charger.
