- So you just picked up a sweet new Dell XPS 15/17, but it only has a 512gb NVME and 16GB ram. Which isn't enough for a power user like you! Don't worry Uncle Jeff The IT Guy has your back. I am here to show you how to successfully add an extra NVME and more Ram to your Dell XPS!!
The new XPS 15/17 is a fantastic machine, it is beautiful, but it needs more space. I got you.

Nice video! The link you posted "below" regarding upgrading the main drive and using something on a USB C adapter to transfer the original data back onto it takes us back to this video.

Neat upgrade! This ssd and ram makes a huge difference it seems.
Yeah,. Definitely gives it more room for storage and more ram for the Premiere Pro
Thank you for making this video for us, you made it easy for us. 🌹🌹
You’re welcome. Thank you for watching
Mine (XPS 17) already came with 64GB of ram and 2 TB nvme. So I added 4TB into the 2nd nvme slot and connect a QNAP 10GB ethernet to one of the thunderbolt ports. Maxed out.
Noice!
Thats what Im planning to do too. Have the same configuration like you.
I added a 2 TB SSD to the 2nd slot of my newly purchased 9700. I am not seeing the drive under disk management. Made sure the ssd was installed all the way and still not showing. Is there something that needs to be done to get the 2nd SSD drive to show up? The 1TB that come with the laptop shows. Thank you.
Hmm see if the disk is showing in the bios. If it isn’t then either the disk is bad(this happens sometimes), the socket on the laptop is bad (also happens). Also make sure that you chose the right drive. The one I tested in the video is known to work.
Thanks for this amazing video, i have the same laptop with 1TB is it possible to add another 2 TB or i need to add same storage capacity which is 1TB?
Yes you can.
@@JeffTheITGuy amazing, thanks a lot for quick reply 🌷
@@MohamadSimo you’re welcome
Hello, can you put in an SSD gen4 with 3.5mm thickness or is this too thick? Thanks for your help :-) !
Yeah
XPS 17 9710, I have replaced the SSD by Samsung 980 PRO NVME, created a WIN 10 boot drive. The Samsung SSD 980 PRO is recognized by the BIOS but the partition is NOT recognized by the WIN 10 installation.
¿Any idea why the Samsung 980 PRO NVME partition is NOT being recognized by the WIN 10 installation usb drive?
That is very strange. It should recognize it no problem. Do you still have the old drive that you can put back in?
@@JeffTheITGuy Found the issue. BIOS set up was in RAID ON, it seem that prevent from recognizing the new drive from clean OS installations. To solve this, it is required to change the settings from RAID ON to AHCI.

@@JeffTheITGuy Thank you for your videos, it helps a lot to learn how to deal with the laptops.
Hi Jeff, is the xps 17 you upgraded the 9710 model ?
The 9710 is the new model with 11th Gen and a 3000 series card. The one I upgraded is the generation before that, so the 9700. The premise is the same however.
@@JeffTheITGuy I just got the 9510. Would the memory models you suggested work for my laptop ?
