Hi,I bought a Lenovo Ideapad 700 15ISK, with a M.2 SSD slot, but without the SSD. Will I lose the warranty if I open the cover to install it myself? Thank you.

Immediately upon viweing this laptops screen for the first time in have been unimpressed with it.. it has a 15.6" 1366x768(?) Resolution screen with horrible viewing angles, horrible backlighy, etc.. all together a nice little computer with a horrible screen.. My question is this:Is it possible to install a 15.6" screen from a similar Lenovo computer that has a much much nicer screen? And if so, what screens exactly would be comoaticom? (Plug and pkay).. I would love a full HD (at least) screen with better viewing angles and if there's any compatible oled panels, I'd absolutely love to have that. Thank you in advance everyone.

Hello,I recently bought a Lenovo laptop ( Lenovo IdeaPad 52015IKB-80YL) as far as now, it has worked excellent -except that HDD sound kinda rattling. I am just wondering that ? already have 1 TB HDD but ? also want to add SSD instead of DVD slot. I don't need that DVD, and ? am pretty sure that with the required stuff ? can do it. But my problem is with the warranty. If ? do it myself -since the technical services don't do- does it broke my whole warranty right? I mean ? got 3 years warranty right but HDD is not performing well, so do ? have to wait 3 years to upgrade to SSD?Thank you.

I just want to know .. I've been documeting about this for a couple of days but still .. i'm not crystal clear . So ..Is my laptop upgradable to 8gb ram ? If so, how many slots do i have ?

Hello, does Lenovo G500 Ideapad use DDR3 or DDR3L RAM memories? I want to upgrade from 4 to 8 GB and I just want to make sure I got the right memory cards

Hello Community,perhaps someone can help me with my problem. I have the above mentioned Notebook. It has a 256 GB Nvme PCIe SSD at the M.2 port. Currently I'm considering to upgrade (resp. replace) this SSD with a 512 GB SSD (I'm thinking about the Samsung 970 EVO). But before I buy it I want to be completely sure that this is possible. I'm mainly not sure because I don't know if the M.2 port has a PCIe x4 or x2 connection and if the SSD would run on a PCIe x2 port. Further I'm not sure if it is generally possible to run a 512GB SSD on that notebook. For the first question I have been searching through the Internet the whole evening but did not find any reliable results. Perhaps someone can help me with that. Many Thanks and kind regards,Daniel

Hello, for professional purposes I plan to upgrade the existing 8gbof available RAM on my laptop to 12gb or 16gb, depending on price range. I know next to zero about RAM consideration for optimal compability/performance. I uploaded two images of the currently installed RAM cards. There are still 2 slots available, could someone point me to recommended/compatible RAM cards? (If I can order it from amazon, the better). Thank you for the support.?

After the Windows 10 upgrade it seeemed to work fine at first. Screen has suddenly gone really dim and can't brighten it. I have tried turning off the adaptive control, tried to roll back the driver in case it was updated with Win 10, but no luck. any suggestions?

Hello All,   I'd like to know if it is possible to upgrade the RAM for the ideapad 72015IKB - 81AG laptop ? if yes, is some DDR4 RAM is the right choice? I'm working on some virtualization projects, and more RAM would really help me. Thanks Best regards,

HiI have ideapad 310 15IKB i7-7500U and want to know the max memory size upgrade I can makeand specs(memory/speed ...)  of the max ram I could plug into itthanks

I have an Ideapad 300S-14ISK too and my understanding is that it has only ONE memory slot. Mine came with 8GB. Spec sheet mentioned - "upto 8GB DDR3L". The chipset can handle 16GB and I was wondering if I can put another 8GB in this unit (if it has 2 slots) OR even swap out the 8GB and put ONE 16GB, if laptop can support it. Thanks,

HiIm looking to upgrade and i have read manuals (two of them provided slightly different information) and also some general questions that i would like an answer from someone who is familiar with this particular model. First, i want to upgrade RAM and all i know is that there is DDR4 4GB(different from what manual says). from CPU-Z testCPU-Z also shows that NB frequency of current RAM is around 2700MHz and DRAM frequency is 1064MHzFrom manual i find out:Type and speed: DDR3L-1333 MHz/1600MHz max supported capacity: 16GB Slots: SO-DIMM x2 What i do not know is what type of RAM shall i schoose/machine supports. I guess since CPU-Z pulls real info from PC then i shall schoose DDR4 for free slotBut there is 2133MHz and 2400MHz memorys available, which one is best for this laptop?  Second question is about HDD, current one is 1TB HDD and also i have available extra bay for 7mm HDD only where usually is cd-drive.I want to take out HDD and replace it with SSD and put HDD into extra bay, will this model be able to manage two drives simultaneously, SSD as main one with OS and HDD for extra files?As i understood i need to replace HDD with SSD and make a clean OS install(already prepared USB installation media) and after everything is done and booted into windows then i will connect HDD into extra bay but should i prepare HDD somehow or it is simple as plug in and go?Is there anything else i need to concider as im planning to do all this by myself...
