SSD upgrade on Acer AN515-51

[Jabali]

I bought an Acer Nitro AN515-51 about 8 months ago and it has been working great.

I want to upgrade the SSD from the current 128 GB to about 500 GB.

From my reading however, it appears that replacing the SSD on this laptop is not possible without voiding warranty.

Any advice on how I can do this? Or is it just better to go to an Acer service center?

You will have to break the "Warranty Void if Removed" Sticker to open up the laptop to switch the SSD.

Honestly, I would just do it myself. If you have a little experience in Hardware it will be no problem. Bringing it to Acer would be a waste of money (in my Opinion)

Well, that is just sucky.

Added to that, Acer does not have any first party support in India. My only option is to go to the Acer Partner Network whose site is super sketchy.

 

Thanks @Alexokratis

Breaking the seal don't really matter, at least in my experience
