Dont forget the 3 clips in the removable battery area. No one mentioned those and I ended up breaking a clip and cracking the bottom cover of my T480... :(

can the drive be upgraded? I have a 160 gig 3001A model but I want to put a 500 gig drive into it….

What technique is used on step 4 to remove the bottom? I need to remove mine but want to be careful not to break tabs or damage the edge.

Seems no one highlights this… its always unscrew then magically they show it with the bottom off.

Is there a little more detail on where to start prying?? I have this laptop and want to swap to an SSD but I am scared s**tless about opening it up and breaking clips in the process… I looked and looked and every guide blows past this step… PLEASE help!

Thanks!!

Anyone know a way to open these w/o any damage? Mines mint and its a monitor my dad gave me before he died so I am on a mission to get it fixed or fix it myself which ever gets me the best results...
