the 256GB is just too small for me.  I like to ask before opening up the spin 7.

    i think you can upgrade it with a M.2 2242 SATA III 1TB.

     

    you need to open the bottom of your Spin and the SSD will be on the left side, keep in mind that probably this will broke the warranty.

    Any replacement for the KINGSTON SSD NAND 256GB RBU-SNS4180S3/256GG LF+HF should fit. It appears you remove six screws and pry off the base cover, remove the battery pack, then one screw to remove the SSD.

     

    This will void any warrenty.  Could use as an external drive while you have a warrenty, then move inside when over.
