One Comment

I’m confused… it only seems like Step 4 and Step 5 are necessary. Does the battery need to be removed before replacing the RAM? If that’s why Steps 1-3 are there, there’s a lot of steps/information missing. It just goes from “take off the bottom case” to “remove the RAM cover of intact laptop”.
