Einleitung
Follow this guide through the process of removing and replacing the Solid State Drive (SSD) in your Thinkpad T490s. A common use of this process is to upgrade the SSD. Note that a thermal pad helps the SSD dissipate heat more effectively. Remember to keep the original thermal pad, or have a replacement ready.
Before you perform this repair, back up your existing SSD if possible. If you’re replacing the SSD where your operating system is installed, familiarize yourself with a disk cloning utility so you’ll be ready to migrate your data to the new SSD.
