 Hello, this is Laptop Media, and today, we will show you how to open the HP Elite Book 1040G9 and what's inside of it. To get inside this notebook, you need to undo a total of 5 captive Philips head screws. Then, pry the bottom panel with a plastic tool, starting from the back. 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. Inside, we find a 51.3Wh battery pack. It lasts for 14 hours of web browsing, or 10 hours of video playback on a single charge. To take it out, unplug the battery from the motherboard and undo the 4 Philips head screws that keep it to the device. The memory here is hidden beneath a metal bracket. It comprises 2 Sodium slots for up to 64GB of DDR5 RAM in total. Likewise, the single M.2 PCI-EX4 Gen4 storage slot is protected by a similar bracket. Cooling wise, you get one heat pipe, a heat sink, and a fan.
