Does upgrading RAM, SSD violate the warranty conditions?
Hi,
I recently brought Dell Inspiron 9501 (nearly three months back) with extended warranty of 3 years. Now i wants to upgrade its SSD and RAM ( to 1 TB and 24 GB). I wants to know if I do it myself will it break warranty conditions. If yes then how can Dell help me upgrading my laptop.
Thanks

Welcome to the Dell Community @mishrakkrishna
People upgrade systems that are under warranty all the time without voiding the Dell warranty.
Upgrading Memory, HDD/SSD and WiFi does not void your Dell warranty.
But, if you damage something (motherboard, port, etc.) while doing an upgrade, you are responsible for the repairs and replacement parts.
It is also best to save any hardware that is original.
This way if you do need to send it in for warranty repair you have the original hardware to send with the system.
Best regards,
