    Has anybody successfully replaced their HDD with a SSD?

    Ive got a z690 with a 320G Hdd. I mount it on a treadmill to watch movies while running..It recently began abruptly shutting down from vibration. I'm guessing it might be the HDD (or some hard to find internal loose connection :mad: ). Thinking maybe puttng in a SSD might help..
