I answered your post in the other thread. It's better if you use just one thread when the question is the same. Yes, you may remove the HDD and replace it with a SATA SSD. The HDD is 9.5mm, while the SSD will likely be 7mm, so you may need a spacer/adapter. On my laptop I installed a 7mm SSD into the bay that originally held a 9.5mm HDD. While I can add the 2.5mm spacer/adapter that Crucial included with its SSD, I don't think it's required or will add any benefit. The original drive bracket holds the new SSD solidly and securely once all four screws are tightened. I can recommend Crucial MX500 SATA SSDs. Tests show them to have almost the performance of much more expensive competitors, yet the MX500 drives are more reasonably priced. They recently reduced the prices, so they are good value. They include the 7mm-to-9.5mm spacer/adapter. Here are some on Amazon. [URL] You can also install an M.2 2280 NVMe SSD, if you have the bracket and mounting screw, which will be faster than a SATA SSD. If you want, you can have both in your laptop. Crucial shows compatible drives for your laptop. Follow procedures in Dell's Service Manual. Look on YouTube for videos showing disassembly of your model. But, be cautious with them, as some use steps or methods that are not appropriate. Use the videos to add to your understanding of what to do, but follow the steps in Dell's manual. Whenever touching components or working inside a computer, wear a grounded wrist strap, also called anti-static wrist strap, ESD wrist strap, or ground bracelet. I know many people do such work without this, but it's a cheap and sensible precaution. Rest the laptop on an anti-static mat or at least a reasonable alternative such as corrugated cardboard.
