Asked By TechNinja42 On

Hey everyone! I'm looking to upgrade my storage and want to replace my Toshiba KBG30ZMT 128GB SSD with a 1TB SSD (considering the Crucial P3 or P5). However, I'm having trouble locating my current SSD, and I believe it's beneath the heatsink. Can someone guide me on how to safely remove the heatsink? Thanks a bunch!

I shared a photo of my setup, but I can't find any screws on the heatsink. Can someone help?

Check closely! Those little black levers on the heatsink are actually for releasing it from the board. Underneath, there should be a single screw holding your SSD in place.

To get to your SSD, you'll need to start by removing the heatsink. Look for a screw at one end of the heatsink that’s holding it down; you just need to unscrew that to lift it off.
