I recently got a Legion laptop and I'm really enjoying it! However, I'm having a tough time with the SSD screw; it feels super tight as I turn it and makes a clicking noise, which makes me worried about stripping it. I've seen some YouTube videos where others have had the same issue. I'm wondering if anyone has tips or tricks to get it out, like using tape or anything. I'm even considering whether I can use the SSD without that screw for now, just to avoid a headache.

If you're installing a new SSD, remember it doesn't need to be super tight—just snug it up and maybe give it a half turn more, and that should do the job! One thing to check is if the screwdriver you're using is the right size. If it’s too big, that might be why it’s so tough to turn.
Yeah, I'm putting in a new SSD but can't get that screw out. It’s wobbling around without it! I was thinking about using some electrical tape for now, maybe until I get to a shop to have them deal with it. Gonna look for some better screwdrivers too!
