Good question. It is possible, but it may put your warranty at risk of being voided if you don't install it properly or if the laptop gets damaged in the process. This isn't the manual for the Spectre x360, but it is the closest model to this laptop. Check out page 33 of the manual on how to remove the SSD: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c04582281 I hope this helps!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes you can upgrade the SSD. As someone mentioned i's a 2280 m2 SSD. Backup the drive via USB memory sitck, replace the SSD and reboot via USB stiick and reinstall the OS. Also once you unscrewed all the screws at the bottom lift the bottom from front to back toward the hinge. You will need a credit card to insert it in between the body and bottom cover and go around gently until the bottom cover separates as it's held in by plastic clips.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes it can be upgraded. It's an M.2 SSD card 2280 type. If you want to upgrade I would recommend to save the HP backup to a USB and reload from there with the new SSD
