You helped me upgrade my father in laws ram from four to sixteen gigs of ram. Now he can use this thing to work instead of just collect dust! Thank you for the video.
Glad I could help
Thank you very much for posting this video.
I bought an Inspiron 15 3510 (Pentium Silver N5030, 4G RAM, 128GB NVMe) because of it - Dell should kick back a finder's fee or something. They don't even advertise the ability to expand with a 2.5" SSD SATA drive on their website, but seeing it here convinced me it was suitable for my storage needs. Straight forward process to access everything, your demonstration is clear and easy to follow.
Using this video, upon receiving my Inspiron, I immediately opened it up, upgraded the RAM to 8GB (2400MHz), the NVMe drive to a 1TB WD Blue (with an EFI partition & fresh Linux install preloaded), and added a 2TB ADATA 2.5" SSD. The UEFI is unfamiliar to me, so it took some effort to figure out what needs to be changed, in order to boot the new NVMe drive, but once up, works like a charm.
I plugged in a Kill-a-watt Meter, briefly, measure as high as 29W on boot, around 15W while running a GUI and charging, and dropping down to about 10W consumption at idle in the GUI with a charged battery. I am only at the first steps of getting all of the hardware configured in Linux, but wanted to give you a big thankyou before I forgot and moved on. I surely do appreciate it.
.
PS : If anyone installs & runs a 16GB/32GB stick of RAM in one of these machines, successfully, I'd like to hear about it. Intel claims the Pentium Silver N5030 has a RAM limit of 8GB, but with earlier generations of CPUs, those RAM limits could sometimes be breached with the right type of module density on RAM. Am also curious to hear about anyone using a high-capacity double-sided NVMe drive, or a high-capacity (9mm thick) 2.5" SATA drive. I *think* the 2.5" drive will fit without difficulty, but I'm never certain about double-sided NVMe drives.
.
Glad you found it helpful!
I have an N4020 instead
Thank you so much. I had trouble opening it because of the top corners screws. After watching your video I managed to upgrade my RAM to 16GB 2400 MHz Dual Channel
❤❤
What CPU do you have?
Thank you! Mine arrived today and your helpful video as helped me install 8GB of RAM and it's working:) My son has been giving me a hard time saying it's not very good computer though:(((
Glad it helped!
The 3510 is quite a basic system though - particularly the Celeron model I reviewed. The 3511 is quite a bit better with the Core i3 or i5.
@@BrueComputing Also at battery life?
wow, Bruce, you made it look so freaking easy thank you
Also, I was just curious but all I had in this laptop now I know the stuff I can upgrade cheers
Glad I could help!
thank you! this helped me upgrade my RAM:)
Glad it helped!
Awesome video. Just a quick question: I noticed you didn’t mention the CPU as an upgrade. Can you upgrade the CPU? Or is it integrated into the motherboard thus meaning it’s difficult to upgrade?
Very helpful video! Question... The laptop currently has a 2400 MHz RAM chip. Can you use a 2666 MHz chip?
Yes, should work fine.
Can u make a video to show how to remove this laptio keyboard and palmrest? Thank you:)
Great video! Thanks.
You're welcome!
Thank you so much for making the video on 3510.
I purchased a new 4GB RAM (2G DDR2 667 SO-DIMM CL5) but I can't see any extra slot for RAM.
So how can I add new.
Please help me.
great video, just what I needed. I have a 4mg ramand 128 sata drive. I am installing a cruicial 8g ram and a 1 tb P3 Plus drive. Should I remove the sata drive?
Hi! I need to know if the SSD screw is a PH000. I used a PH000 screwdriver, but I couldn't remove it. :(
Very informative. If we upgrade RAM, when playing fortnite or PUBG still buffer? Thanks
Performance still won't be good in games.
I wish they would make cpu's replaceable on laptops . You have to buy a whole mew laptop about every 2 - 3 years.
Even when laptop CPUs could be upgraded, it rarely made a lot of sense. You couldn't fit a later generation chip as they wouldn't be socket or BIOS compatible and higher performance chips on the same generation often required additional cooling.
The benefits of a soldered down CPU are in the reduced Z-height from not having a socket (allowing for thinner laptops), smaller overall footprint on the board (allowing for a smaller mainboard and more space for a larger battery) and higher speed/lower voltage signalling.
Kingston ddr4 value 3200mhz vs kingston ddr4 fury impact 3200mhz which is best
The value would be fine - you'll have no benefit from the Fury Impact as it'll just run it at DDR4-2400 and JEDEC standard latencies anyway.
@@BrueComputing fury impact series much better than value series or not plz reply sir
@@abhishekrajurkar1034 It will be no better - both will offer identical performance in the Dell Inspiron 15 3510.
Hi, I have a problem with the dell 15 3510 i5 10th generation, when my hinges broke I glued it back in, so after I finished my laptop won't start again ??
i was pretty sure that i didn t touch the main board but i maybe forgot to unplug the battery while i m working..
I have a dell precision 3510, has a 256 gb. I have a portable 1tb add I can plug into the side but I was wondering is it possible to place it on the inside? Any and all help will do.
I have dell Inspiron 5558 model my laptop only works on AC adapter. Using battery I’m not able use . Battery is new only after 70% not able to charge . In bios mode I checked battery heath is good and adapter 65w showing. Please helps me to laptop work on battery mode. Even driver update shows upto date .
I have a question, I have the intel pentinum version of this, do you know if this one supports 8gbs of ram, and also how much MHz does it run at?
Yes, you can fit an 8 or 16GB SO-DIMM.
It runs at DDR4-2400 - you can fit a faster module, but it'll run at this speed.
Hi I have Inspiron 15 TGL 3000, 3501
Is this also a single module for ram?
It’s 4gb as standard would like to upgrade to 16gb if possible
Upgrade guide for the 3501 here: ruclips.net/video/-1zonLCEeEM/видео.html
I am a complete novice. I have purchased a M2 2280 SSD 1TB, Is it a case off just fitting and that's it, or do I need to remove all software onto a external hard drive and reinstall?
Thanks
You need to either clone your original drive contents on to the new drive, or clean install Windows to it, reinstall applications and copy your files across.
Dell have given me a link to download Acronis, I keep getting this error message when I open it:
This product edition requires at least one Crucial SSD be installed in your system... Any ideas how I get passed this please?
Can you list all the components you upgraded, name/number for this particular model, for ease of ordering them online?
Hai do you think 128SSD is too low for this laptop, I’m looking forward to buy one soon ??
I have a is that a hard drive at the bottom with bracket or internal storage
According to Intel spec the N4100 and N5030 only support 8GB of ram. Did anyone actually try it with 16GB?
I only tested mine with 8GB, sorry.
Hi sir. May i know why my laptop same of yours only detach 4Gb but im usibg 8Gb. What must i do sir.
What’s the speed of the RAM?
I try to use microsoft teams on this model , it's super slow any suggestions please 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Necesito mejorar la velocidad de esta notebook.
Podrías decirme qué debería comprar para mejorar su velocidad por favor/ GRACIAS!
No puedo creer haber comprado algo tan lentooooo!!!
Solo puedes actualizar la memoria a 8GB 2400 MHz y la capacidad de almacenamiento.
Does it have cooling fan ?
No, just a heatspreader.
Sir, is this guide compatible with dell vostro 3515?
Its similar construction, but obviously the internals are different.
@@BrueComputing Thank you.
Is this a good longterm laptop?
With a machine like this, but the Celeron chip. Can I upgrade like you?
Mine was the Celeron model, so yes, you can do these upgrades.
The CPU can't be upgraded though.
Great video...!!! If I upgrade the SSD to 1GB, what happens to Windows OS...or is the OS held somewhere else?
1TB do you mean? You'll need to either clean install Windows or clone the contents of the drive across.
@@BrueComputing oops...yes, 1TB...I'll leave it as is...!
Is the GPU upgradable
No.
Hi is it okay to install 2666 to 2400 mhz?
Is the cpu upgradeable?
Only by replacing the mainboard - the processor in all modern laptops is soldered down.
Did this and now it won't power on
Looks like it was a RAM issue, hopefully the next one they send isn't dead!
What brand of Ram you use ?
Crucial. amzn.to/3E92jt1 (#ad)
Nvme ssd ok
I just wished they had put two sodimm slots so the user can be able to run at dual channel memory , even though the maximum for these celeron chips is 8gb.
My dad gifted me recently a Lenovo S145, it has the N4100, 8gb Ram and 512gb ssd❤️
only thing bogging this down is this single channel memory 😅💔
I think 16GB is the maximum supported by the CPU.
@@BrueComputingis this laptop support up to 16gb ram?now i try to buy 8 or 16 gb of ram.please help me.
