Hi  Dom303,

The warranty on the system will not get void provided no other parts are damaged while replacing the SSD. However Dell Warranty will not support the SSD that you are upgrading.

Hi Dom303,

You can install the drive if the system model supports mSATA configuration.

The operating system can be installed on the mSATA if it is 128 GB and above. However before installing you will have to disable the Intel Smart Response Technology and also change the mSATA operation.

Please revert for further assistance.
