 Hello, this is Nick from Laptop Media and today we will show you how to open the Lenovo Ideapad Flex 514 Gen 8. To remove the bottom plate, you have to undo 9 Torx head screws. Then, you can detach the panel with a plastic tool. Please remember, it would be of great help to us if you just hit the like button and subscribe to our channel. That would motivate us to make even more and better videos for you. The battery has a capacity of 52.5 watt hours. As expected, first, you have to pull out the battery connector from the motherboard. After that, you have to undo the 3 Phillips head screws that are keeping the battery in place. The capacity of the unit is enough for 11 hours and 7 minutes of either web browsing or video playback. For storage, there is a single M.2 slot compatible with the shorter 2242 Gen 4 SSDs. However, due to AMD platform limitations, the slot speed is downgraded to Gen 3 values. The NVMe here is protected by a metal plate that has a cooling pad on the inside which is good. The memory is soldered to the motherboard. The maximum possible amount of RAM is 16GB LPDDR4X, 4266 MHz memory in a dual channel mode. The cooling system looks standard for such a device. It has one fan and two heat pipes.
