#ACER CHROMEBOOK 128GB TRANSCEND SSD UPGRADE#
If you have an older Chromebook that is already out of warranty anyway, that is not an issue, but I would not recommend buying a Chromebook with an SSD upgrade in mind if the warranty has any value to you. Moreover, at least in the case of our Acer C720 Chromebook the warranty will be voided if the SSD is upgraded.
The experience just feels incomplete if you are used to using Windows or OS X because of the limited functionality. There is no proper music player for instance, so you are limited to using the Files app (a Chrome OS take on the Windows Explorer) for song selection, which works but is nowhere near as convenient as using Windows Media Player or iTunes for playback with support for playlists and other common features. While you can technically have some level of file management inside the downloads folder, it is a compromise and the user experience is far from good. Because Chrome OS is designed for a web/cloud environment, it does not play nice with local storage. Unfortunately, the good news mostly ends here.

Compared to a Windows laptop, I would say the upgrade is easier as you do not need third party cloning software and the whole process takes less time.
With the built-in recovery tool the migration is easy and even the physical upgrade is only a matter of removing a handful of screws (although this may depend on what Chromebook you have). The positive news is that the upgrade process itself has been made relatively simple and effortless. Let's start with a conclusion of the Chromebook SSD upgrade before we move on to the actual drive.
