nice write up. thanks for that. laptops and SSDs are getting so cheap now.

I recently replaced my 2.4G wifi with a 5G on my dell inspiron something
or other laptop,
and it was a major pain. Granted no ribbon cables need to be removed to
replace the HDD,
but to replace the wifi I had 5 delicate ribbon connectors to deal with. I
only broke one. oops, but a piece of cardboard and it's as good as new.
