How to use

Power off the laptop and remove the battery (if removable) before beginning installation. Remove the optical drive from the slim bay according to the laptop service instructions. Secure the 2.5" SATA drive into the caddy's mounting frame using the supplied screw points, then connect the caddy's slim bay adapter to the laptop's bay connector and slide the assembly into place until it locks.

Use this caddy only in Dell laptops that explicitly accept the Pro Slim or Slim Plus slim bay form factor. When installing an SSD, enable AHCI mode in BIOS for optimal performance and perform a secure mounting to prevent vibration.
