Also he said, actually there should be a whole to fit the caddy screw. Since there is no screw hole, and can't close, the HDD will come out of it. Is that correct? Lengthy question. But please help me
You are welcome bro! and well, if your laptop came with a dummy DVD and doesn't have an actual DVD, then you can remove the whole back of the laptop and check if it does have a real SATA3 slot inside at the place of the DVD, if so, then you can install a DVD-HDD Caddy and close it with no problem. But if there is no SATA3 slot inside, then it's useless to install a HDD Caddy.

Sir I have lenovo ideapad slim3 15ML05 laptop and the interface is SATA so, which type of ssd suitable for my laptop m.2 ssd or SATA ssd.? Plz tell me I'm so confused 😬
Hi Marika, there is a big chance that your laptop does support both 2.5" SATA3 regular drives and an extra M.2 slot that does support an NVMe SSD, so you can either get a 250GB, 500GB or 1TB 2.5" SATA3 SSD or keep the regular HDD in there and install a 250GB or 500GB PCI-e NVMe SSD for windows while a 1 or 2TB HDD for multi-media and so on.
Any 2.5" SATA3 SSD will work perfectly pick up the brand and capacity that suits you, Crucial, Kingston, WD, SanDisk, A-Data, Samsung or Lexar and capacities 128GB, 256GB, 512GB, 1TB or 2TB.

Hi. I have the lenovo ideapad 320 and I am planning to change the ssd but I'm scared to buy the wrong one. What ssd is suitable for ideapad 320? Thanks💖
Hey ETOMON KRISTINE, you are welcome! and any 2.5" SATA3 SSD will get the job done, WD Green, SanDisk, SAMSUNG EVO or QVO, Crucial or Kingston etc .. just pick up whatever suits your budget and need of them 240GB, 500GB or 1TB all the way up to 2TB.
The only lenovo low-end CPU laptop that does have a PCIe slot and supports NVMe drives is lenovo S145, Ideapad 3 and L3 series does have it as well. and in such a low-end CPU, you wouldn't notice much difference in overall performance between a regular SATA3 and a NVMe drive. keep in mind, the SATA3 won't get toasty hot compared to most NVMe drives.
The one i had was one of a very common ones that you can find on amazon or any local seller. it was a 2.5" SATA3 Kingston 128GB or 240GB can't remember but there are a plenty of them, Kingston, A-Data, SanDisk, WD Green, Lexar and Crucial. any of them will do.
Hi sir I have lenovo v330 15 IKB with 1TB HDD and want to upgrade to SSD what type of ssd fits, does m.2 fits and if they work at the same time hdd and ssd drives
Hello gambol, I don't think your model does support m.2 drives. but you can install a 2.5" SATA3 SSD as your main drive and if you wanna keep the other HDD in the laptop as well, you can replace the DVD drive with a HDD-DVD Caddy and install the HDD in it.
Hi i have Lenovo ideapad 320-15ISK it has 4gb ram and it is so slow . Will the ssd make difference with 8 gb ram upgrade or shouldn't i do this upgrade ?? If yes can i replace the optical drive with ssd and put windows 10 on it??
Definitely go for the SSD and RAM upgrade. If it has an empty RAM slot sure install additional RAM but the SSD is the most important of all upgrades. Make sure the SSD that contains the windows is the one inside the laptop and put the regular or secondary HDD on the Optical drive caddy.
Hello, recently my ideapad 330 has been very slow. When I checked in the settings I saw only 4 gb ram on this device. But I swear that was not the case 2 years ago when I bought it, coz I would have noticed that in the settings. Recently I also updated to the latest windows version. Do you know what could be the reason behinf all this?
If you are using the same copy of windows since the day you bought it, it would get faster if you reinstall a fresh copy of windows, also if you are using a regular HDD, you should definitely upgrade to a much faster 2.5" SATA3 SSD, Make sure you are using windows 10 home or just any edition other than the Pro on such a low-end machine that is meant for basic everyday computing tasks.
You can check with your local distributor whether if replacing your HDD with an SSD will void your warranty or not. and also Lenovo is an excellent brand that it's very rare that something happens that requires fixing it during the warranty time.
You are welcome! :) and yes, it does support lenovo Vantage and you can install it and enable conservation mode to prolong the lifespan of your battery.
There isn't any kind of sounds coming out of the whole system after SSD installation since any SSD has no moving parts at all, while HDD has a motor and plate that's spinning at 5400 to 7200 rpm. and also the notebook itself has no fan since it's passively cooled with a piece of metal.
What is the benefit metal cover or Memory ram? and the laptop has only 1 slot for memory ram or 2? and what if I wanna to uprgrade it to 32 G.B? THanks
Hey Youssif, you are welcome! and the metal cover for the RAM on any of the modern laptops are for protecting the memory chips from the static charges that could potentially damage them. and such a low-end machines with a Celeron CPUs aren't made for high demand multi-tasking, so you wouldn't get that huge difference in performance upgrading your RAM, only make sure you install an SSD and that will boost the speed enough. i never upgraded a celeron machine's RAM anyway, they always come with a 4Gigs which is enough, the CPU is a bottle-neck itself. It's meant for basic browsing, mails, youtube and productivity not many tabs and so on.
Ananthu, Most IdeaPads 330 are meant for everyday computing and not for intensive multi-tasking. so the 8GB of RAM are sufficient enough. and definitely, you can and must upgrade your current 1TB HDD with an SSD of your choice for speeding up your computer up to 10x in boot time and overall performance! There are plenty of SSDs (2.5" SATA3 SSD) Crucial, Kingston, SanDisk, WD, Samsung, AData, Lexar etc.. with your desired capacity from 120GB all the way up to 2TB according to your storage needs.
@@ananthums8970 Sure.. you can upgrade RAM up to 12GB as I did. But change the HDD to an SSD and it will be blazing fast! I know SSD's are not cheap, but see what fits your budget and try to get one.
Bro I've same laptop. I want to have both hard disk and ssd in my laptop but i want to install my windows ( from hard disk to ssd) in SSD. So what should i do? Should i replace hdd to ssd and insert hdd in dvd slop using dvd caddy. Please help
Hi there! You said exactly what you need to do. Just install the SSD as your main drive and the HDD in a DVD caddy and that's it, i would recommend a fresh clean installation of the same windows version you had right to the SSD in stead of taking an image from the old HDD or something. and don't worry about the license as it's tied to your hardware and it will be reactivated once you are connected to the internet.
Hey Sachin, They meant that you can add an extra HDD on something called a DVD-Caddy in stead of your optical drive or the DVD, that's in case your laptop does have one. But you can just remove the old 2.5" HDD and replace it with and other 2.5" SATA3 SSD and it will work perfectly fine. No need to put the SSD in stead of an optical drive or anything, just remove the Hard drive and drop the SSD right away.
Kingston A400 SATA 3 - SA400S37/240G. And about the speed test and so on, i haven't done those but i can tell you that either this one from Kingston or any other one like Crucial, Samsung EVO or EVO+, WD Green or Sandisk and so on .. all of these will do perfectly fine and will speed up the whole system 10x the speed of a regular HDD in addition to extending battery life and safer with no moving parts.
It was a Kingston 120 or 240GB, can't really remember. but you can use any 2.5" SATA3 SSD such as: Samsung, Kingston, SanDisk, WD Green, Crucial, Lexar or A-Data.
Just make sure to backup your data anyway, nothing to lose, you won't lose it though, if you replace your HDD with an SSD, you can connect your old HDD via a SATA3 to USB Cable or install it in a USB rack and copy all your data to the SSD.
@Mandar Misal, If your machine does have an Optical drive, you can remove it and install a HDD Caddy and this way you can have both the SSD and HDD installed inside the laptop. either this or to install it on a regular USB HDD Enclosure.
Definitely. you will have to reinstall windows 10 unless you have got some OS Cloning software that comes with some SSDs like Samsung Migration Software, i think Kingston does have a similar software, but i would recommend a clean windows 10 installation and if your machine had a licensed one before, the license will stay valid even after reinstalling windows.
@@Proaz15 If you have bought it with windows license, when you install the same copy of windows whether if it's a home or pro, it will be activated again automatically and you won't lose your license.
This particular model doesn't have an m.2 slot and due to the CPU limitations, it wouldn't do any difference replacing the RAM. There is another similar model that does have an m.2 slot which is the lenovo ideapad S145 which i also uploaded a video for it: Lenovo Ideapad S145 Ports, Specs & SSD Upgrade
You can either backup your files before replacing the HDD with an SSD or connect the old hard drive via a USB Rack to the machine after the SSD upgrade and copy your files to the new SSD.
Is the ram or the ssd should upgrade first? I play some light game on it, and the game run smooth 60fps but sometime stutter and freeze at loading screen
what's the thing at 4:09 (in place of CD driver) that you put back into the laptop? Can we install both SSD and HDD or only one is able to install in Ideapad 330??
It was the optical drive, and if you installed an SSD, the only way to keep both SSD and HDD is to remove the optical drive and get a Optical Drive HDD Caddy and install it in stead of the DVD.
@@somsunderbamrara2585 There are 2 caddy thicknesses out there, the 9.5 and 12.7mm, on all new laptops, it's always the 9.5mm so make sure you get the thinner one.
Yes I too have the same question. If we add HDD to DVD place where we are given with a dummy DVD slot with a closed one, it will be open like that. And the local shop guy saying there is no screw option, so that it was fitted inside and to not to come out of it. What to do?
@@shakeermirza dvd dummy ko nikalne k liye ek screw kholna padta hai na ... To caddy me ssd ya hdd lagakar usi screw ko tight kar doge to nhii niklegi caddy bahr.. Ache se rahti hai..mene laga liya hai or sayad dust bhi nhi jayega bilkul pack jesa hi rahta hai so don't worry ... Mujhe SSD lagane me 5 min laga tha bas !! Tum bhi try kar lo !!
A huge difference not just any difference. Running a computer with a regular spinning HDD is a thing of the past and so sluggish! SSD will boost your overall performance anywhere from 5 to 10x the regular speed in boot time, sleep and wake, hibernation, multi-tasking, read and write speeds, games and programs installation and operation. SSD is a must not an optional upgrade.
If it's windows 10, then it's registered to your computer, and if you change the drive and install the same version of windows 10 again, it will be automatically activated. meanwhile, another way is to clone windows from the old drive to the new one, there is a cloning software available with SAMSUNG SSDs as well.
The caddy is included as the internal HDD was already in one, you just replace the HDD with the new SSD, and if you meant the DVD caddy, then, most of the new machines are using the thinner 9.5mm and not 12.7mm ones.
Well, i haven't opened that protective RAM cover, so i dunno if the 4GB of RAM are on-board or you can replace it with a 8GB one. But it wouldn't affect the overall performance that much anyway since you wouldn't be able to do a heavy multi-tasking on it.
yes you can use the one and only memory slot , but you should get the ram speed supported by your cpu and your mother board , i think my lenovo only supports 16gb max
Hi. I have lenovo ideapad 330 and I want to change my ssd and add ram but I'm scared to buy the wrong one. I've been looking what is compatible to it but can't find any. How do I know which one is compatible? Thank you
Hey la belle, any 2.5" SATA3 SSD will work perfectly fine up to 1TB, but i'm afraid you can't upgrade the RAM since it's an ultra-affordable notebook that isn't meant for much upgrades, change the SSD and it will boost the overall performance x5 ~ x10. Upgrading to an SSD is a must.
i hve lenovo ideapad 330 amd a9 4gbram+hdd 1 tb toooo slow...lags alot!! maine ajtak isne kuch nhi daala bahar se bas browsing karne me hi ye chrome kholne me 10 minute laga deta h AMD A9 reason h??? ram or ssd change karana help karega?
The main reason for this machine to be that slow and lags all the time is the fact that you are using it up till the moment without replacing the 1TB HDD with a much faster SSD that will boost system speed 5 to 10x at least.
SSDs prices depends on place or market, sellers, brand and availability, but let's say it's between 35 ~ 130 USD depends on the brand and capacity 250GB, 500GB or 1TB.
I want to upgrade my laptop but am worried i will buy the wrong type of SSD Hdd and wont fit. CAn you give us the model of SSD hard drive you installed?
No, unfortunately, this model doesn't have a PCIe slot, the newer Ideapad S145 does have a PCIe and does support both NVMe SSDs and the regular 2.5" SATA3 ones.
@@ModiAdams I have same laptop configuration i3 7th gen 8 gb ram but. Iwant to install ssd as well as hdd as same time shop keeper said there is no option you can only use one at a time
Some SSDs does provide an OS cloning software, but i would recommend a clean installation of windows 10 and you wouldn't lose your license anyway as it's embedded to the machine itself.

@@ndarrell1 The machine may boot up from the HDD in stead of the SSD which would makes the idea of the SSD useless. Just format it and have a clean windows installation on the new SSD.
You can easily do that by swapping the DVD and get a HDD caddy that can be installed instead of the optical drive and have another drive there. Just make sure the windows is on the main drive and not the one on the DVD-HDD caddy.
@@marcusaurelius2988 yea, just do as he said in the reply above you. remove the DVD as a whol, get a HDD caddy and install it in it's place, and get a SSD hard and install it there. Either that, or replace the original hdd. your choice.

This particular model doesn't have a PCIe slot. meanwhile, a very similar one from Lenovo does have a PCIe slot which allows you to add a PCIe NVMe SSD (Lenovo Ideapad S145).
You can set booting priority via the BIOS. restart your device and keep pressing F2 maybe or Del, but usually F2 does let you go to the BIOS menu. also some lenovo notebooks does have a recovery hardware button on either sides of the laptop that if you press it with a SIM tool, it will allow you to enter BIOS and set booting priority. all and all, if you remove all drives and leave only the SSD, it will always boot from it with no problems at all.
Is the RAM upgradable? I have one torn apart in front of me right now and I can't see a RAM slot besides something covered in a rectangular aluminium frame.
@@bernaldsolano It's alright, I don't think it's upgradable either .. because this machine isn't for high-end computing .. it's just to get everyday basic tasks done, so even if those were upgradable, imaging buying high performance SSD, additional RAM and so on, you would still have the bottleneck of the CPU & GPU .. so just a good SSD will pump it to what exactly it's meant for.
@@axufilms729 16 GB? How?? I saw a 4GB of Ram is soldered to Motherboard. And have only 1 slot where we can replace 4GB ram with any other ram. How much Ram you added to make it 16GB??
It has only a 2.5" SATA3 SSD since it's lenovo's affordable basic everyday computing notebooks, NVMe drives are meant for high performance and gaming laptops.
I had a few different versions of the 330s, and it supported the NVMe SSD. By the way, you probably already know that the NVMe SSD's are lightning fast, at around 1,000 read and write speeds. I never experienced anything nearly as fast as a laptop with one of those in it.
Your windows 10 license is already bonded to your machine. changing your SSD won't affect it. just make sure you installed the same version of windows 10 and you will find it activated.
Such a botato level everyday basic consumption laptops wouldn't need an M.2 NVMe SSDs anyway, since the SSD wouldn't be the bottleneck at such a system :D , SATA3 SSD will make it 10x faster than it's with a regular HDD!
@@eng.gilp.ramasececms7448 You are welcome. I know how tempting is it to have a faster SSD, but there is no PCI-e Slot in this laptop anyway, so you can just try to find the fastest 2.5" SATA3 SSD available if you do care that much about a faster storage .. something +500MB/s read and write speeds will do.
The lower-end your CPU is, the more crucial is to get an SSD to get the overall performance much faster. although i said before, no matter what machine you are using, SSD is a must.
Maybe you haven't upgrade your notebook's HDD to SSD which should boost the overall performance up to 10 times faster than if you left it with it's HDD. I had it and it's not usable at all with the regular hard drive same as most laptops, upgrading to SSD is a must since they are becoming much cheaper everyday ..

Sir I have lenovo ideapad slim3 15ML05 laptop and the interface is SATA so, which type of ssd suitable for my laptop m.2 ssd or SATA ssd.? Plz tell me I'm so confused 😬
Hi Marika, there is a big chance that your laptop does support both 2.5" SATA3 regular drives and an extra M.2 slot that does support an NVMe SSD, so you can either get a 250GB, 500GB or 1TB 2.5" SATA3 SSD or keep the regular HDD in there and install a 250GB or 500GB PCI-e NVMe SSD for windows while a 1 or 2TB HDD for multi-media and so on.
Thank you
Sir, but my laptop interface is SATA so is nvme support to my laptop
Hi bro which type of ssd i need to buy for lenovo Ideapad 330s?
Any 2.5" SATA3 SSD will work perfectly pick up the brand and capacity that suits you, Crucial, Kingston, WD, SanDisk, A-Data, Samsung or Lexar and capacities 128GB, 256GB, 512GB, 1TB or 2TB.

The only lenovo low-end CPU laptop that does have a PCIe slot and supports NVMe drives is lenovo S145, Ideapad 3 and L3 series does have it as well. and in such a low-end CPU, you wouldn't notice much difference in overall performance between a regular SATA3 and a NVMe drive. keep in mind, the SATA3 won't get toasty hot compared to most NVMe drives.

The one i had was one of a very common ones that you can find on amazon or any local seller. it was a 2.5" SATA3 Kingston 128GB or 240GB can't remember but there are a plenty of them, Kingston, A-Data, SanDisk, WD Green, Lexar and Crucial. any of them will do.
Hi sir I have lenovo v330 15 IKB with 1TB HDD and want to upgrade to SSD what type of ssd fits, does m.2 fits and if they work at the same time hdd and ssd drives
Hello gambol, I don't think your model does support m.2 drives. but you can install a 2.5" SATA3 SSD as your main drive and if you wanna keep the other HDD in the laptop as well, you can replace the DVD drive with a HDD-DVD Caddy and install the HDD in it.
This will tear down the warranty right?
I think so, but double check with your seller for that.
Hi i have Lenovo ideapad 320-15ISK it has 4gb ram and it is so slow . Will the ssd make difference with 8 gb ram upgrade or shouldn't i do this upgrade ?? If yes can i replace the optical drive with ssd and put windows 10 on it??
Definitely go for the SSD and RAM upgrade. If it has an empty RAM slot sure install additional RAM but the SSD is the most important of all upgrades. Make sure the SSD that contains the windows is the one inside the laptop and put the regular or secondary HDD on the Optical drive caddy.
Hello, recently my ideapad 330 has been very slow. When I checked in the settings I saw only 4 gb ram on this device. But I swear that was not the case 2 years ago when I bought it, coz I would have noticed that in the settings. Recently I also updated to the latest windows version. Do you know what could be the reason behinf all this?
If you are using the same copy of windows since the day you bought it, it would get faster if you reinstall a fresh copy of windows, also if you are using a regular HDD, you should definitely upgrade to a much faster 2.5" SATA3 SSD, Make sure you are using windows 10 home or just any edition other than the Pro on such a low-end machine that is meant for basic everyday computing tasks.
Please can you suggest if i can keep my HDD and add SSD in my lenovo 330
If your model does have an DVD, you can install the SSD as the main drive and put the HDD on a DVD Caddy in stead of the optical drive.
Sir maine abhi lenovo L340- 15IRH laptop liya hai and merko ssd install karni hai to warranty jayegi to ni ? Please btado
You can check with your local distributor whether if replacing your HDD with an SSD will void your warranty or not. and also Lenovo is an excellent brand that it's very rare that something happens that requires fixing it during the warranty time.

Yes, you can install a 2.5" SATA3 SSD as the main drive and install the other HDD in a DVD Caddy in stead of the optical drive.

Is there a clicking sound while using the ssd like the one while using hdd?
There isn't any kind of sounds coming out of the whole system after SSD installation since any SSD has no moving parts at all, while HDD has a motor and plate that's spinning at 5400 to 7200 rpm. and also the notebook itself has no fan since it's passively cooled with a piece of metal.
What is the benefit metal cover or Memory ram? and the laptop has only 1 slot for memory ram or 2? and what if I wanna to uprgrade it to 32 G.B? THanks
Hey Youssif, you are welcome! and the metal cover for the RAM on any of the modern laptops are for protecting the memory chips from the static charges that could potentially damage them. and such a low-end machines with a Celeron CPUs aren't made for high demand multi-tasking, so you wouldn't get that huge difference in performance upgrading your RAM, only make sure you install an SSD and that will boost the speed enough. i never upgraded a celeron machine's RAM anyway, they always come with a 4Gigs which is enough, the CPU is a bottle-neck itself. It's meant for basic browsing, mails, youtube and productivity not many tabs and so on.
I am using a Lenovo IdeaPad 330 laptop with 1 tb hdd and 8gb or ram ... Can I upgrade both ram and hdd to ssd ?
Ananthu, Most IdeaPads 330 are meant for everyday computing and not for intensive multi-tasking. so the 8GB of RAM are sufficient enough. and definitely, you can and must upgrade your current 1TB HDD with an SSD of your choice for speeding up your computer up to 10x in boot time and overall performance! There are plenty of SSDs (2.5" SATA3 SSD) Crucial, Kingston, SanDisk, WD, Samsung, AData, Lexar etc.. with your desired capacity from 120GB all the way up to 2TB according to your storage needs.

Hi there! You said exactly what you need to do. Just install the SSD as your main drive and the HDD in a DVD caddy and that's it, i would recommend a fresh clean installation of the same windows version you had right to the SSD in stead of taking an image from the old HDD or something. and don't worry about the license as it's tied to your hardware and it will be reactivated once you are connected to the internet.
hey man i want to add ssd in mine 330 also but customer care said there is no slot we have to put ssd in optical drive what does this means
Hey Sachin, They meant that you can add an extra HDD on something called a DVD-Caddy in stead of your optical drive or the DVD, that's in case your laptop does have one. But you can just remove the old 2.5" HDD and replace it with and other 2.5" SATA3 SSD and it will work perfectly fine. No need to put the SSD in stead of an optical drive or anything, just remove the Hard drive and drop the SSD right away.
Can you tell me the details of ssd you used in that laptop? Model and spec? Thanks
Kingston A400 SATA 3 - SA400S37/240G. And about the speed test and so on, i haven't done those but i can tell you that either this one from Kingston or any other one like Crucial, Samsung EVO or EVO+, WD Green or Sandisk and so on .. all of these will do perfectly fine and will speed up the whole system 10x the speed of a regular HDD in addition to extending battery life and safer with no moving parts.

@Mandar Misal, If your machine does have an Optical drive, you can remove it and install a HDD Caddy and this way you can have both the SSD and HDD installed inside the laptop. either this or to install it on a regular USB HDD Enclosure.
Do I have to reinstall windows 10 after i finished installing the ssd? How can I do?
Definitely. you will have to reinstall windows 10 unless you have got some OS Cloning software that comes with some SSDs like Samsung Migration Software, i think Kingston does have a similar software, but i would recommend a clean windows 10 installation and if your machine had a licensed one before, the license will stay valid even after reinstalling windows.

Any difference in performance
A huge difference not just any difference. Running a computer with a regular spinning HDD is a thing of the past and so sluggish! SSD will boost your overall performance anywhere from 5 to 10x the regular speed in boot time, sleep and wake, hibernation, multi-tasking, read and write speeds, games and programs installation and operation. SSD is a must not an optional upgrade.

In old HDD my original windows was there, how to copy that in SSD??
If it's windows 10, then it's registered to your computer, and if you change the drive and install the same version of windows 10 again, it will be automatically activated. meanwhile, another way is to clone windows from the old drive to the new one, there is a cloning software available with SAMSUNG SSDs as well.
Which mm Cady you use in Lenovo ip 330
The caddy is included as the internal HDD was already in one, you just replace the HDD with the new SSD, and if you meant the DVD caddy, then, most of the new machines are using the thinner 9.5mm and not 12.7mm ones.
can i use memory slot? i want to raise process speed.
Well, i haven't opened that protective RAM cover, so i dunno if the 4GB of RAM are on-board or you can replace it with a 8GB one. But it wouldn't affect the overall performance that much anyway since you wouldn't be able to do a heavy multi-tasking on it.

The company has giant team of Social Media Relationship, thats why it has these types of fake reviews and comments in which they justify that this is the worlds best laptop!!!! (or the super awesome reviews are just because they want to earn affiliate commision) here is the reality by the REAL customer---- yes same experience, third quality laptop ,, build material is third class, my closing lid is broken after second year of purchase , even when i occasionally use it. chrome opens after 4 minute waiting. touch pad lags and useless for task like programming, sound is very slow cant listen in open. support is pathetic, my all tickets are pending from months, no calls from lenovo, only chatbots which are useless....i have to replace hard disk (SDD) then only it was usable for normal tasks like browsing.and now lid is broken what will i do with the broken laptop which was broke without human fault, just by closing and opening few times in second year purchase and occasional use???
Brother, could you please share your laptop full model number? I checked my full specification on lenovo website( model - Lenovo Ideapad 330 15IKB). It is showing SSD capacity 128/256 Gb. So Would I be able to use 500GB SSD? If you wish you can check it here - pcsupport.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/300-series/330-15ikb-type-81de/parts/pd500200-product-overview-notebook
My laptop is ideapad 330 to but the chipset is 3000 series,is that still save for upgrading the HDD to ssd??
Don't worry, it doesn't matter, upgrading to an SSD is a must for up to 10x the speed.
