What is the model of the clip you said to mount the M.2 2280 SSD? I cannot find it anywhere, and the Dell people cannot even find it in their inventory.
Excuse could you share the link when i can buy the part number of 2FFR0, CYHFX? maybe in amazon? ebay? or similar product thanks.
Hi!, what model will work a "Toshiba RC100-M22242-240G NVMe ssd" or "Transcend SATA III M.2 SSD (22x42mm) 128GB MTS400"
into WWAN slot in dell 5490 ?
Where can I find the bracket that you described
Thanks for show components. What I'm looking for whether it has M.2 slot.
It has it
How does it compare to the 5480?
Does this charge via USB-C 85 watts?
Asking because my other laptops charge via USB-C with my docking stations.
that was very helpful
Glad it helped
can i put in a ssd for the system and a hard disk for store data?
Hi, thanks for the video! I have one question, SSD''s installed into the WWAN slot run faster than SSD's installed into de M.2 SATA port?
yes ofc because its nvme pcie interface but you can't boot from it you can use it only for storage :(
@@muhammadsrour5202 really can not boot?
@@joelgonzalez477
Yes you can't boot from it as i know, already tried this in a lot of models before
@@joelgonzalez477
Yes you can't boot from it , it will be just storage
@@joelgonzalez477 yes you can boot , i installed one ssd m2 nvme 2242 toshiba rc 100 and using the other 2280 as storage... in the first attemp first the machine doubt to recognice the ssd, then i took the ssd m2 2280 out of the slot and puted it again the toshiba rc100 in the wwan slot and instaled win 10, after that shut down and put the 2280 in the proper slot and restarted and voila!! works perfect.

Hello is it possible to remove the processor or it´s welded on the motherboard? Regards.
The CPU of almost any laptop nowadays is soldered to the motherboard including Latitude 5490 in the video
Any idea how to reset the BIOS admin password? bios-pw.org doesn't work anymore.
Hi. Can you tell me how to reset the bios password on this laptop please?
Can you have two ssd drives? One on the WWAN port and one on the regular disk port?
Yes, you can.
I can confirm that this is possible with the 5490. I bought a Lexar NM520 nvme SSD and installed it into the 2242 slot.
Works well.
@@RohitdeSa Hi! I have on question, SSD'S intalles into de WWAN post run faster than SSD's installed into de SATA port?
@@hugoraulbocci3844 Not necessarily. The speed of your SSD will be the limiting factor - so an M2 SATA and a 2.5" SATA SSD should theoretically have the same speed. In general, NVMe is faster than SATA. From my understanding, the WWAN port takes only NVMe M2 drives and not SATA M2.
@@RohitdeSa Thanks for the answer! I bought a Lexar M.2 2242 256 Gb nvme SSD to install into the WWAN port, I will tell you if it works when it arrives next week
Is it good to buy this laptop at Ind rs 15,000/- today that is 10th of December 2022 as a second hand laptop... Pune india
Can I use WM card to install ssd M.2 type 2242?
yes but you can't boot from it only for storage
I just upgraded a latitude 5490 to a Samsung Evo 970 Nvme 1TB today.
Just providing some notes here for anyone upgrading.
Mine came with a 256GB SSD listed as SATA but it was in the Nvme slot. On the upside, it had the clip already for the Nvme soldered to the board.
So I had to do a clone and swap.
First temporarily suspend or disable and decrypt BitLocker, I chose disable and decrypt and got a massive performance increase ~1GB/sec transfer improvement on Clonezilla. You can turn it back on after imaging/cloning to upgrade. I use this laptop for Visual Studio / MS SQL Server and related things, mostly open source, so, I'm going to go without for a while and see if there's an improvement in performance.
I used Tuxboot to put Clonezilla ISO on a USB drive, and had a 1TB USB Western Digital My Passport already formatted to FAT32 for compatibility with my IOS devices. Use disk-image setting to clone the included 256GB Nvme SATA to the 1TB WD in a directory, then power off, put in the Evo SSD and restored.
Afterwards you need to let Windows 10 do the "inaccessible boot device" it will boot eventually on the 2nd or 3rd try into a screen where you can use Advanced -> Command Prompt, then you need to use diskpart to load up the EFI FAT32 partition on the cloned drive and assign to say drive V or W. Then run your usual bootrec / bcdboot routines to fix the partition, after a boot or two I was back to
normal.
Then when back in Windows 10 use AOMEI to move the recovery partition to the end and resize the main drive up to the remainder of the 1TB capacity, it's maybe easier than gparted in this case since it uses pxe bootup to apply the queue of changes to partitions.
*** Figuring out how to manually fan control is a more difficult matter that I haven't figured out yet, I'd like to have my fan running all the time to keep the unit cool, the expense of battery is fine with me. Speedfan does not work, nor any other utility I've tried. ***
If anyone has hints on the fan issue it'd be appreciated. I'm running apps like Visual Studio 2019 Community, MS SQL Server, Qemu, VirtualBox, Cygwin, and so on.
Hey! I installed a 2tb 970 evo plus on a latitude 5490, but I'm only getting read 1764 MB/s on crystaldiskmark 7. Are you getting the full 3500 MB/s ish?
@@AdanP I think the Samsung "Magician" tool, which I ended up uninstalling reported 3500MB/s. That's of course, according to Samsung.
It's at least quite a bit faster than the included 256MB that was there before.
One thing I've noticed, the device runs WAY HOTTER than it did before when plugged in or at high HDD/CPU usage, to the point that I may have to get a good chill pad for it.
Some people love running devices hot and recommend running SSDs hot, I don't, that just seems careless and irresponsible to your hardware, possibly your safety as well.
Especially noticeable when I'm doing any debugging for a while in Visual Studio 2019 Community, which I do quite a bit.
The throughput may depend on how your analysis tool reports its benchmarks, there's obviously going to be a difference if it's only reading a few sectors versus several MB, even though advertisers like to claim otherwise.
HD Tune Pro gives me 999.1MB/s over a test of 500MB. It's taking into account time and has a 2D graph with min and max values, I would recommend it. HD Tune seems like a more serious tool, at least in terms of data visualization.
CrystalDiskMark looks kind of spammy and primitive, and has a "Shizuku" edition, I think I'll pass on that one. :P
I also have a Samsung 960 Evo on an i7 NUC from a couple of years back and it gets very loud if there's plenty or r/w activity, it sounds like the little jet engine that couldn't, very annoying, especially considering I want to run a DNS and web server from it.
@@johnernest8109 Hey John. Thanks for the super fast reply! My Samsung Magicial tool is not even recognizing the drive, meaning that something is not right. I also don't see much of an improvement vs my old stock SSD of 512 that came with my Dell Latitude 5490. The fact that your Samsung Magician even reported anything close to 3500 MB/s means that I must have something wrong in my system. Did yours work fine just by cloning it and switching your previous drive? Or did you have to change any settings in the bios or system?
@@AdanP iirc **important one** that I forgot to mention. In the BIOS settings I couldn't get things to work with Clonezilla unless I went to SATA options, and turned on AHCI support instead of RAID, very important as I could not even get the drive to report in Clonezilla before I turned on AHCI instead of RAID and for that matter you wouldn't be able to see it in any bootable Linux Live distro from USB, which you're going to want for cloning.
Also make sure you have run Bitlocker decrypt on the drive and wait for the status on command prompt to go to 0% encrypted before cloning, which takes a while maybe about half an hour to an hour or so, can't stress that enough, otherwise it will not work. After cloning the drive onto the new drive then you can use AEOMI to move and resize partitions as needed to get the maximum size of the drive. Bitlocker only really protects you from physical theft of the device, not from cybertheft over TCP/IP if you were running, say, a web server running through the firewall that had a security flaw and was exploited.
Samsung Magician is one of those tools that hides a lot behind the scenes, I wasn't a fan. As an owner of a Samsung TV and a Samsung Gear Sport also I'm a bit wary about some of their tech that's come out around the same time after some headaches I've had with Tizen as a developer, for example, Tizen 3.0 on my TV doesn't support C# only C++, and I can't upgrade to Tizen 4.0 with it, which would support it, only on my Samsung Gear Sport could be upgraded to Tizen 4.0, which also has had major problems with its S-Voice speech-to-text service not being able to connect to the online service it needs, ad nauseam.
I did see a noticeable improvement in speed, and having a TB in here is nice as I do a lot of development. Not 3500MB/s worth of improvement of course.
I think the 3500MB/s benchmark is probably, well, marketing.
It's perhaps best to look at it in several common tools, and get an average comparison. I just used AS SSD as it again also looks like a more serious tool than CrystalDiskMark, and here were the results:
Seq: Read: 1345.94MB/s, Write: 1177.13MB/s
4K: Read: 40.73MB/s, Write: 121.26 MB/s
4K-64Thrd: Read: 846.04MB/s, Write: 824.59MB/s
Acc.time: Read: 0.081ms, Write: 0.030ms
Score: Read: 1021, Write: 1064, Overall: 2608
That sounds way more accurate and realistic to me for a Nvme over a SATA than the advertised specs. A full GB is a LOT to read in at one time in a second. Your fastest consumer internet speeds are around maybe a Gigabit, which means 8 times slower than a GB. When you factor in virtual and physical memory, a program is chugging quite a bit to go from disk to memory even that much.
Note: I have over 25+ years of software development experience and was a computer programming contest team winner on a team out at AT&T years ago. So, I have a lot of experience over the years looking at benchmarks of different kinds for HDDs, CPUs, and Video Cards, and thought the 3500MB/s advertised benchmark actually seemed a bit dangerous, my biggest need rather than speed was going from 256MB to 1TB because the development tool stacks that exist today eat up almost the full 256MB on software installs just themselves.

Hey John!
Thanks for all the awesome information and for your valuable time and opinion.
Here's how I went with the process. Seems like we went different ways since you used
Clonezilla.
System:
Dell latitude 5490
16gb DDR4 2600 ram (8gbx2)
2tb 970 Evo Plus (previous 512gb gave me SEQ read writes of 500MB/450MB ish)
Software used to clone:
Paragon Hard Disk Manager 17
It was as simple as selecting my drive to copy, and expand to capacity. In an hour or so
the cloning was complete.
I did disable bitlocker on drive C after I swapped the drives.
I also updated the DELL's drivers and firmware up to the latest version.
I'm more shocked about people's results than mine, not the marketed results.
Also not just on CrystalDiskmark, but on "AS SSD" that you recommended me.
www.google.com/search?q=as+ssd+benchmark+evo+970+plus&sxsrf=ALeKk02J7wVP2rS-N_krBxW91Thr9kMecA:1595567959096&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiyv6rrkeXqAhVPM-wKHddsARAQ_AUoAnoECA0QBA&biw=1920&bih=947#imgrc=-OCN5yt1jIDT8M
My overall score was about 3303 on AS SSD, which is decent.
My sequential read is 1611/1358, as opposed to other people's results at 2750/2215.
Maybe I'm obsessing too much over this, I just want to make sure I don't have some dumb
setting enabled/disabled which could be causing a performance loss.
I ordered a new laptop which is due to arrive in 2 weeks or so, so maybe I'll get better results
there, but I think the dell latitude 5490 is a pretty solid laptop, so I don't know if something is causing this drop or not. Or maybe it's working fine and I'm just worrying about nothing?
Again thanks for your time and expertise.

I would never give my laptop to this technician for how he throws the Disks
hey is there way to get a new drive instead of that stupid m.2
which ssd nvme compatible for the e5480?
Hi Rafael; I would expect any M.2 PCIe drive to be compatible.
is this pc good for school/adobe pack/light gaming in 2020 ?
School, yes. Adobe... hmmmmmm maybe not. Light gaming is okay. The Intel uhd 620 graphics is not particularly strong, but just enough to get everyday tasks done.
Where's the part where you remove the battery?
I did not remove the battery; I just showed where it was. I believe it is just a few screws and 1 power clip though. easy enough :)
😊 yo con mi latitud de core i5 8th y pantalla touch que me costo 3000 pesitos estoy feliz tuve una mala experiencia comprando una lenovo que me costo un riñon , no vuelvo a comprar laptops tan caras es mejor conseguir un pc se escritorio con ese precio
Does it fit if I have 1 m2 and 1 sata hdd?
So ? )Does it fit if I have 1 m2 and 1 sata hdd?
4:43
2FFR0 is the part that allows NVMe SSD to be mounted instead of HDD?
keep tossing those hard drives, maybe they'll stop working on ya.
