How to Disassemble a Dell Inspiron 5570

Today, I will show you how to install an SSD and an SSD module (M.2 2280 slot) in a brand new Dell Inspiron 5570 Laptop. These instructions may be the same or similar for other laptop models in the Inspiron 15 line, but I am specifically working with the 5570. With an 8th Generation Intel i7-8250U processor, 8GB RAM, and a 1 TB 5400rpm hard drive, the one thing slowing the laptop down the most is the hard drive. I will install a Western Digital 500 GB SATA SSD and a Toshiba 1 TB SSD by disassembling the cover, with the intent of booting from the Toshiba SSD instead of the slower Western Digital SSD.

The tools that you will need are a Phillips head screwdriver for removing the screws from the laptop's cover, and you might need a smaller one for the SSD. You'll want to use an ESD strap or ESD mat because you'll be exposing the insides of the laptop to install the SSD. Finally, a couple throwaway gift cards or expired credit cards or some professional prying tools will come in handy for prying the cover off the bottom of the laptop.

While you are here, you can upgrade the memory as well, for which there's two slots - one already configured with 8GB of DDR4L memory (in my configuration). It takes up to 32 GB, so you could upgrade to two 16 GB sticks if you wanted to. You can also access your internal 2.5" hard drive, which you could upgrade at a later time.

Once you installed the SSD, you will want to reverse the steps - basically you'll re-attach the bottom cover. Flip it over and open the lid again, making sure to snap each tab around the edges. It's just a matter of screwing everything back together, which you can do in no particular order. Once all the screws are in, flip it over one more time and reopen the lid. Make sure to check the fit and finish, especially around the edges.
