The specs of the HP Spectre X360 are pretty good but there will come a time when you might want to upgrade the SSD, battery or Wi-Fi card. When that time comes, knowing how to take your HP Spectre X360 apart might come in handy.

Remember though, disassembling your laptop will void any warranty!

1. Make sure the laptop is turned off and not connected to the mains.
2. Place the HP Spectre X360 face down on a clean work surface. It will help to have something around to keep the screws safe.
3. Remove the eight Phillips screws holding the bottom enclosure in place. The screws are two sizes, keep them organized so they don’t get mixed up.

6. Remove the two Phillips screws to remove the SSD. Slide the drive up and out to remove it.
