    I don't understand why ram upgrade isn't possible cos the ram shows 1 of 2 slots used which means you can fix another ram in the empty slot so why is that not possible I think you just need a good technician to disassemble the parts and then fix it for you it should work

      2nd memory slot is not soldered-in, only white marking on the motherboard can been seen but no connector. Most likely the same mobo is used in different laptop models with attached components strictly matching particular configuration with virtually no possibility to upgrade. Typical tactic from Lenovo across variety of equipment.

      I dont understand why any computer maker would make a computer that you cant upgrade the ram. I bought this modal thinking I could upgrade. to fit a socket on the motherboard that has provision for one would cost pennies. STUPID, Lenova. 4gb in a modern laptop makes it useless. I have it from the Lenova help site, it is not upgradable. Stupid,

    the right upper corner looks like an M.2 slot. from another video i watched about the Walmart $129 special on this laptop, it has an M.2 slot. also, what's the unhooked black cord to the left that's taped down?

    I have the 128GB version of this laptop. It is definitely not a replacement for my desktop machine, but it satisfies my needs.
    I have a hybrid work schedule. So, I work part-time in the office and part-time at home. I log in remotely to my work VDI using Citrix. I have a desktop in my home office with 32GB RAM, 5 TB of storage and two monitors. So, I don't need a laptop when I am there. However, because I am on-call 24/7, I wanted an inexpensive lightweight laptop to carry with me so that I can log in to my VDI when I am away from home. I'm not a gamer. This laptop is perfect for that purpose.

      agree. it is a cheap laptop in the $100 range. So less flexibility.

      Hello - thanks for your comments. I did the research again to see if it is upgradable. But looks like it is not. See this Lenovo forum.
      forums.lenovo.com/t5/Lenovo-IdeaPad-1xx-3xx-5xx-7xx-Edge-LaVie-Z-Flex-Laptops/Ideapad-1i-14-HD-Laptop-Celeron-N4020-RAM-upgrade/m-p/5190712
      Let me know where did you find it can be upgradable?
      Easy upgradable devices have extra slots

  • @renepoirier7085
    @renepoirier7085 26 дней назад

    These are wrong pointers. I could add an extra 8GB of RAM on top of the existing soldered 4GB and also an NVMe drive in the M.2. We could clearly see those slots for that in you video.
