How to install Getac 256 GB PCIe Internal SSD

• Power down the device completely and disconnect any external power sources. If your unit allows, remove the battery for extra safety before service.
• Consult your Getac maintenance guide for the exact service procedure and required tools to access the internal storage panel. Open the back cover to reach the internal PCIe slot or drive bay.
• If replacing an existing drive, carefully detach and remove the old SSD from its connector and mounting bracket. Note the screw placement and connector orientation for a proper reinstall.
• Align the new 256 GB PCIe SSD with the slot or drive connector, then gently insert it until it is securely seated. If the design uses a mounting screw, secure the drive to the chassis using the appropriate screw in the designated position.
• Reassemble the device: replace the service panel, reconnect the battery, and power on. Enter BIOS/UEFI to verify that the new SSD is detected by the system.
• Boot into your operating system. If the drive is new, initialize and format it using the OS’s disk management tool, assign a drive letter or mount point, and configure as desired (OS installation drive, data storage, or cache as needed).
• For best performance, ensure TRIM is enabled (usually by default in modern OSes) and run a standard disk optimization schedule. If migrating data, use a trusted cloning tool to clone from the old drive to the new SSD.

Frequently asked questions
