I called Thursday and I did upgrade Saturday.First I powered down the laptop.Removed all screws from bottom cover and removed ram and hdd cover.Removed 4 screws from hdd and carefully disconnect and remove hdd.Carefully remove back, I watched video for this and used a credit card to slide around the edge to help pop apart.DISCONNECT BATTERY THEN HOLD IN THE START BUTTON A FEW SECONDS TO DRAIN RESIDUAL STORED POWER.Hold ssd buy the sides tilt up at a 30 degree angle and slide in slot untill until seated.Push down on ssd and put in screw to hold in place.RECONNECT BATTERYSnap bottom cover on and replace all screws.Hook up hdd and install screws.Crucial add comes with paper that guides you to a website to clone your new drive.Start up lap top and go to the site download Acrions and follow the directions.This worked without any issues and when it comes to computers I am not that knowledgeable.This thing went from minutes to boot up to 10 seconds
