Adding storage to MSI laptop

Hello,
I have an MSI GL75 9SE laptop.

I would like to upgrade the internal SSD but I don't know how to do it.
I watched a tutorial online where the guy has extra slots, but I don't see the component to add that extra SSD. Is that normal?

Hi Tinou

Hello,

It seems that yes, a disassembly video shows an SSD in that location.

On the contrary, the video to add storage the internal NVME SSD is located next to the RAM.

First image MSI laptop from the YouTube tutorial

But where is its Aorus SSD location, I don't even have the component to add an additional SSD

Second and third images of my laptop

So, as you said, wouldn't there be a need for an NVME SSD but a regular SSD (like for desktops), or is it still another type of internal SSD?

We don't know which video you're talking about.

Hi

It's not complicated:

-You have an MSI GL 75 9SE

-On the search engine, I find 10 different models, all because we've gotten into the habit, I don't know why, of giving only half of the PC's reference.

Out of 10 merchants, there are 10 different prices, it's actually 10 different PCs. What a scam!

Either you replace your SSD with a larger capacity one:

You can also try to find a drive for that slot, but it looks more like an HDD; it seems you have a connector present:

Or you buy the same laptop as in the video that has the 2nd slot equipped, but it's a different model :-(

The photos are blurry, we can't read the labels to be more precise about the installed models and capacities.
