 Hello, this is Nick from Laptop Media and today we will show you how to open the Acer Aspire 5, A517, 58M. To open this laptop, you have to undo 11 Phillips head screws. After that, lift the bottom plate with a lever tool in the areas behind the hinges. Then, fully pry the back with a thin plastic tool and work your way around the sides and the front. Wow, there is so much unused space around the super tiny motherboard. Our notebook has the default 50 Watt hour battery. There is also an optional 65 Watt hour model. To take it out, unplug the connector from the motherboard and undo the two Phillips head screws that fix the unit to the base. The capacity is enough for around 9 hours of web browsing or 11 hours of video playback. To achieve that, you have to apply the balanced preset in the Windows Power and Battery menu and select the Normal mode in the Acer Quick Access app. As you can see, the memory is soldered. Still, you get up to 32GB of LPDDR5, 4800 MHz RAM in dual-channel mode. In terms of storage, there is just one M.2 slot compatible with 2280 Gen 4 NVMe drives. The cooling is simple, but it seems okay for an IGPU-only notebook. It comprises one fan, two heat pipes, a heat sink, and a heat spreader.
