Yeah, I've not needed a laptop for quite some time. The only one I have left can
be
deemed "ancient". :-)
Oh, and just to add to my learning experience, the Dell XPS uses a PCIe SDD card so
a
different sort
of enclosure would be needed then the ones I have. :-) :-) But they are inexpensive.
The video I watched about that laptop shows it only needs 10 screws removed and not from
the keyboard
side. So that's good.
