    Disassembly, maintenance and upgrade options

    Hint: Ensure the laptop is powered off and unplugged before starting. Use high-quality tools to avoid damaging the device.Undo the eight Pentalobe screws securing the bottom panel to the base. Attach a suction cup to the left side of the bottom panel. Pull up gently until the internal clips on this side release. Repeat the process on the right and front sides, ensuring all clips are disengaged. Use a spudger to carefully push the rear of the panel towards the front, focusing on the zones behind the hinges. Using a thin plastic tool (or fingernails if absolutely necessary), pr[...]
