Lenovo yoga ideapad upgrade

[Steve0j0Betts]

Some advice please. I want to upgrade my Lenovo Ideapad yoga 13 which is an i7 series 1 model which has been upgraded to Windows 10 Professional. It came with 4GB Ram and 128GB SSD. My plan is to double the RAM and fit a second SSD following the videos on youtube.
The system 128GB SSD fitted is: SAMSUNG MZMPC128HBFU-000L1

I’m not looking for the cheapest options but I do want to avoid driver problems etc

There is a slot ready prepared for a second SSD so I think a
Samsung MZ-M5E500BW 850E 500 GB mSATA SSD would be the safe option..

But I note that there is a similar 1TB drive
Samsung 1TB 850 EVO mSATA SSD

Would that be compatible? i'm drawn to the larger as I want to make more use of HyperV and machine images.

Hi,

Yes you can upgrade it's RAM up to 8GB max and I would go for Samsung 1TB 850 EVO mSATA SSD which has the best review when it comes with performance and reliability.

Here's the complete Tech Specs of your laptop.
