Description: Use this guide to upgrade RAM or to replace...
Steps:
- Power off and unplug the charger from your device.
- Carefully flip your device upside down laying it onto a flat surface with the battery facing you.
- The two eject switches are located on the right and left side of the battery compartment.
- Slide the right switch further towards the right to lock it into place.
- Slide the switch to the left. Continue to push the switch because unlike the right switch, it will not lock into place.
- Using both hands, continue to push the left switch and grasp onto the center notch located in between the right and left switch.
- Pull the center notch towards you and you will notice the battery will start to eject.
- Lift the battery out carefully using two hands.
- Use a Phillips #1 to unscrew one 7.0 mm screw from the hard drive/RAM panel.
- You cannot remove the screw from the panel. Simply unscrew it until loosened.
- Wedge the plastic opening tool between the back panel and the hard drive/RAM panel near the screw.
- Lift the end of the opening tool slowly until the hard drive/RAM panel separates on one side.
- Repeat the steps above on the left side of the hard drive/RAM panel.
- Pull the cover towards you and up from the device to remove it.
- Hearing a popping noise while wedging the plastic opening tool is normal.
- Push outward on the metal tabs to unclasp the RAM from its slot.
- With the RAM unclasped at a slight angle, carefully pull it out with two hands.
- When reassembling, remember to align the indentation on the RAM with the indentation on its slot.
