Dell SSD upgrade
Hi all,
Looking for some advice on whether I can upgrade a laptop to use a TeamGroup GX2 SATA 6 Gb/s 512GB 2.5"drive.
This drive was originally installed this drive in my ASUS N61JQ Laptop. I painstakingly installed everything, and a while later the laptop died. I've put the TeamGroup drive into a USB adapter case and I can read all the files, so I'm pretty confident that the drive is okay.
I have the opportuninty to get a Dell Latitude E3570 at a pretty good price, and would like to know if I could swap over the SSD from my ASUS to the Dell, because it has everything already set up on it, and with Windows 10 version 1909.
I initially thought I might be able to just change over the drives, and I'd be back on the air again. However, looking on the net I'm getting a lot of conflicting information from:
1. It won't work
2. It may work but not well
3. It may boot but will require you to meticulously go through the Device manager and check that all the drivers are valid and up to date.
Option 3 I'm happy to do, but is someone able to advise what the likely outcome will be, or a procedure to try that would yeild a favourable outcome?
Look forward to hearing your opinions
Regards
