How to change or upgrade a hard disk in a Dell Vostro 15 3568 laptop.
In this video I open the laptop to reveal the motherboard, wifi card, memory and hard disk and replace it with an SSD.
(Otherwise known as the Vostro 3000 series).

Brilliant, helped me switch my old hdd with an ssd, now it feels like a brand new laptop! Thank you very much for the detailed instructions!

@freename 2 жыл бұрын

Really glad it helped and yep; SSD upgrades make machines so much more usable. Even a brand new computer without an SSD feels slow and old.

Great tutorial, thanks. I managed to get my failing hdd out and swapped with a 1TB ssd. I'm installing Windows as I type this, but, my left click has stopped being able to be depressed. As soon as windows has finished installing I will have the confidence to pull it apart to sort it...thanks to you. Top man 👍

If the laptop supports hard disks on DVD connector then yes. Some laptops don't like them. Some laptops work ok with them but can't boot off the DVD caddy.

Macrium Reflect is free for home use. And a low cost USB to SATA adaptor - probably Startech is a sensible bet.

HI .. i like this video .. I got a customer with one of these but it keeps freezing intermittently for about 30 to 40 seconds and i dont know what storage controller driver to change it to .. i have no idea if its even the sata controller causing the issue.. just keeps freezing. i cant seem to make head or tail with event viewer so many warnings i dont know what it could be causing the freezing. the mouse moves whiles its frozen and it comes right.. do you think 4gb of memory running windows 10 is enough or could be part of the problem ?

If it's got a traditional hard disk it's almost certainly a dead sector on that drive

If you get a USB 3 portable sata enclosure. Yes you can use your old hard disk as a USB disk.

Thanks, nice video! But its terrible operation :) In the past, I was changing HDD on old IBM and on Asus and it was so easy and fast. It was enough to unscrew four/six screws, take out the small cover and just change HDD. But with Dell you need to open the entire computer. Really very annoying

Does it show a bluetooth entry in Device Manager and, if so, does it look like it is ok.. or does it have an X or questionmark next to it or any other symbol to identify it might be unhappy?

What SSD should I choose for dell vostro 15 3568 intel i5 7th gen ?

@freename 2 жыл бұрын

Any standard SATA 2.5" SSD. (Basically looks the same size and connector as the hard disk). Should be really low cost. I tend to stick with SanDisk, crucial and Kingston brands.

Not on the model I have in my video. It doesn't seem to have M.2 / NGFF / NVMe .. and doesn't seem to have the DVD drive connector (which potentially could be used for a storage drive).

How do you transfer all HDD content to SSD?

@freename Жыл бұрын

For home use.. Macrium Reflect Free. And If you don't have the ability to plug in both drives at once, a USB to SATA converter like this: m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71x+USY7wOL._AC_SL1500_.jpg

The spec says it supports M.2 sata but not nvme. However I can't see the port on the motherboard in the video. Best and safest to stick to a standard SATA 2.5inch drive as shown in the video.

Guess it seems obvious to me that something you've never used before is not going to magic all your data onto it. Also there is a high chance of someone wanting to install windows from fresh; in which case no prior cloning required. And, in all the clones I do.. I use a USB boot stick and a usb to sata lead to clone the data. There are so many variables on if you want to copy the data, how you want to copy the data and methods to do so.. I can't cover it in each video I do on how to upgrade hardware.
