Einleitung
Follow this guide to replace or upgrade the M.2 2230 SSD in your Asus ROG Ally.
The ROG Ally has an M.2 2230 NVMe PCIe 4.0 port. The included SSD is 256GB or 512GB, but the Ally supports up to 2TB.
This guide only describes how to physically remove and replace your SSD. You'll need to use Asus Cloud Recovery to set up your new SSD and get your device working again, which requires an internet connection.
If the SSD you're installing has previously been used and still has data on it, back up the data before installing the SSD. The formatting process during setup will fully erase the drive.
