Charging port and power repair
Depending on the configuration this charges through a round socket, USB-C or both. We test the adapter, the port and the charging circuit to find which has failed.

The Dell Latitude 5550 takes an M.2 SSD. We clone the existing drive to a larger one so Windows, programs and files carry over unchanged.
