 What's up everyone takedown here welcome back to another video today I'm going to be sharing with you how to replace your hard drive in your laptop You may want to do this if you are experiencing problems with your hard drive or if you want to increase the storage in your laptop In this video, I'm only going to be showing you how to physically replace the hard drive in your laptop I'm not going to be showing you how to format it for your laptop But if you purchase a new hard drive It will give you all of the instructions on how to format it for that laptop for that device Because I know if you replace it for a playstation 4 or any other device you have to format it for that specific device So I'm not going to be showing you how to format it in this video Just how to physically replace it in your laptop. Let's get right into it Okay, so here's my laptop like I said, I'm going to be showing you all my Toshiba satellites But this can be done on any laptop just some of the things maybe in different positions First thing you're going to want to do is locate and take out your battery Usually there's a little switch and then that unlocks it so you can take out your battery Once the battery has been removed, you're going to want to put it off to this side Next you're going to want to locate your hard drive. Usually there's a panel that it's screwed down So you just want to unscrew it and take out that panel Once the panel is removed just put it off to the side and then now that you have found your hard drive You're going to want to take it out. So usually there's a screw holding it down You're going to want to take out that screw and put it off to the side and then pull out the hard drive So usually you just push it one way until it disconnects out of the pins Like so and you're going to want to just take out the hard drive now I'm not actually replacing my hard drive or upgrading it. I don't need to I'm physically showing you how to if you need to So once you get your new hard drive, you're going to want to put it in the same way you took it out And you're going to want to make sure that you push it all the way in so it connects So it connects to all the pins before putting in the screw once you have the hard drive put in You're going to want to put the screw back in to hold it down And now that the hard drive is installed you're going to want to put the panel back on Make sure it's clicked all the way down and screwed it down And now that you have the panel back on your hard drive is installed The last thing you're going to want to do is put your battery back in You're just going to want to put it back in Make sure it clicks down and then make sure that you lock it So that is how you replace your hard drive on a laptop. I didn't need to I just wanted to show you guys in a video on how to do it Hope this has helped you guys if it has please leave a like subscribe for new content and I will leave this video here. Peace
