Use this guide to upgrade or replace the right side M.2 solid-state drive (SSD) in a Lenovo Legion 5 15ACH6H gaming laptop. This laptop is only compatible with NVME SSDs, and is therefore not compatible with SATA SSDs.

Before you perform this repair, back up your existing SSD if possible. If you are 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.

Finally, be sure to completely power off and unplug your laptop. Make sure the laptop is not in standby, sleep, or hibernation mode.
