Help installing SSD in Auralic Aries G2

I just got a G2 and I have a spare 2.5" 2TB SSD that I'd like to install. I'm not incompetent in these sorts of matters but not a tech wizard either. There's very little detailed guidance about this on the web so I'm wondering if anyone here has done it and can give me the basics? What will I need other than the drive itself? How difficult is it? I have a USB drive attached now and it works just fine so if this is a major operation maybe I'll just skip it. Thanks for any help

Never put one in but here’s a video for the Auralic Altair which I presume is similar with respect to installing an SSD. 

Here’s one for configuring the drive once it’s in


It might not be exact but should get you started.

It's plug and play.

Okay I guess I'll just have to trust you and open it up. That video... thanks, I saw that. That is an Altair G1 and I'm pretty sure I don't need that (insanely overpriced) aftermarket kit for the Aries G2.
