Remove the existing hard drive or SSD from the drive bay. Insert the KINGDIAN S280 into the bay and connect the SATA data and power cables. Secure the drive with the appropriate screws. Reinstall your operating system or clone your existing drive to the new SSD using cloning software before swapping. Refer to your device's service manual for model-specific installation instructions.

### Frequently Asked Questions

**Is this compatible with my laptop?**  
The KINGDIAN S280 uses a standard 2.5-inch SATA3 interface, which is compatible with the vast majority of laptops and desktops that have a 2.5-inch SATA drive bay. Check your device's specifications or service manual to confirm SATA compatibility before ordering.

**Can I use this as a primary boot drive?**  
Yes. The S280 can be used as a primary boot drive for Windows, Linux, or macOS (on compatible hardware). Install your operating system directly onto the SSD for the best performance benefit.

**What is the difference between 120GB and 128GB?**  
Both are similar in usable capacity. The 120GB and 128GB options differ slightly in raw NAND capacity and are from different production batches. Either is suitable as a boot drive for an operating system and essential applications.

**Does it work with desktop computers?**  
Yes. The 2.5-inch form factor fits most desktop cases with a 2.5-inch drive bay. If your desktop only has 3.5-inch bays, you will need a 2.5-to-3.5-inch adapter bracket, which is widely available separately.

**How long does delivery take?**  
Delivery timelines depend on your location and the shipping method selected at checkout. Estimated delivery times are shown on the product and checkout pages.
