1. Remove the bottom plate

This is an incredibly easy laptop to disassemble. Just undo 5 captive Phillips-head screws, and pop the bottom panel with a plastic pry tool.

2. Battery

Batter-wise, you get a 53Wh unit.

3. Memory and storage

What we see next is that this notebook is an upgradeability champion. Despite its small size, HP was still able to fit two RAM SODIMM slots, which are located beneath a metal shroud. To access them, just remove the shroud by pulling the tab on the right. The total amount of memory it supports is 64GB of DDR4 in dual-channel. Additionally, there is one M.2 PCIe x4 slot for storage, also covered by a metal shroud.

4. Cooling system

Here, the cooling solution consists of a single heat pipe, and an average-sized fan. Interestingly, the CPU has a metal bracket covering it, so it will dissipate some residual heat, not being caught by the heat pipe.
