INSTALL M.2 DELL INSPIRON 5577

Hello, I have recently purchased a Dell Inspiron 5577, this one came with a HDD 5400rpm 1TB, I want to upgrade to a SSD and I know that this model has a M.2 SATA/Nvme slot, I'm thinking of purchasing a 128GB M.2 Nvme PCIe SSD so I can install the OS and some programs on it but I also want to know if I would be able to replace the HDD as well for a SATAIII SSD of higher storage (256GB or 512GB) as SATA is cheaper than Nvme, so my question is, would I be able to use two SSD (the SATAIII and the M.2 Nvme) both at the same time?

Yes it works no issues 
1) - unplug the charger -Remove the back cover - disconnect the battery cable -disconnect the cable of hdd -remove the screw using philips + head screw -remove hdd -remove hdd casing.

2) -put the case for ssd as it was for hdd - now put the ssd into the place from where it was removed - put the screw back - connect the hdd cable.

3) - connect m.2 stick to the slot - tight the screw - connect the battery cable 

4) now install the os

@kunalkolamkar  Bro is that M.2 SSD attached in the slot a SATA one or NVMe one?

I am thinking of buying a SATA M.2 as  NVMe are too costly, so can I upgrade SATA M.2(with M&B keys) in this laptop?? I have same one- Dell 5577 Gaming

 

Please help with a reply so that I can order the same accordingly

Thanks

Hi,

 

Do you know if Dell Gaming 5577 has 2 nvMe slots or 1.

I have 128 GB SSD inbuilt and I would like to add another one if possible.

If not, then may be I have to upgrade the existing one?

There is support for one M.2 drive -- you can't add another M.2.  You'll need a larger capacity drive (or to add a 2.5" SATA SSD if that drive slot is open).

Hello and good day to you ^^

I want to make you happy and let you know that DELL Inspiron 5577 is Fully Capable to work with
Samsung Evo 970 Plus 500GB with 7200Rpm 500GB HDD. I inserted the NVMe M.2 and it works like a Beast. 

Get rid of SATA M.2 couse NVMe is much faster and works quiet well on DELL Inspiron 5577

Cheers
