Yesterday I went to Costco to pick up a few things, but mostly to pick up a couple of N-95 masks that were being handed out. Then spent most of the day staying inside to avoid all the smoke and falling ash.
Thanks, Doug. I'd love to give it a try. Now I have to start google'ing for instructions to do the upgrade.
Edit:
I have an ASUS X550ZA. Crucial's compatibility tool recommends this:
Crucial BX300 240GB SATA 2.5-inch 7mm (with 9.5mm adapter) Internal SSD
CT1024558
Would yours happen to be this size?
I got off easy. It was a bad igniter and the repair only cost $150.
I've been thinking and maybe what I should do is replace the 1T HDD in my laptop with a 256GB SSD. Any comments about this idea? Do you have recommendations for SSD brands and models?
