1. Remove the bottom plate

There are 8 Phillips-head screws separating you from the insides of this machine. Thankfully, they stay attached to the bottom panel after you unscrew them, so the chance to lose them is minimal. After that, you need to pry the panel with a plastic tool, or preferably a guitar pick. Keep in mind we found it easier if you start prying around the hinges.


2. Battery

When you’re away from the plug, the EliteBook 745 G6 will be powered by a 50Wh unit.


3. Memory and storage

As far as the upgradability goes, the notebook offers you two RAM SODIMM slots (running in dual-channel mode), which support up to 32GB of DDR4 memory at 2400 MHz. Then, there is the M.2 slot, capable of running both SATA and PCIe x4 drives.


4. Cooling system

This notebook features an AMD CPU inside, which is cooled by a single – relatively bulky heat pipe.
