Y400 laptops can be fitted with SSDs.

Installing an SSD is replacing the drive:

1. Disassemble the computer, find the hard disk slot, remove the original hard disk, and install the solid state drive.

2. Prepare a U disk PE system, partition the SSD under the PE (be sure to align it 4K) 3. Install the system.

Note: Generally, laptop hard drives are inch-sized sata

interface, when buying an SSD, you need to check the hard disk interface, for example, SATA your notebook must support it.

is available; There is also a solid state drive that can only be replaced, because the notebook only has a hard disk interface, if you must add it, you can remove the optical drive, and modify the motherboard--- add a hard disk interface and power interface.

You're going to take the back cover apart, right? There are more than a dozen screws in the back, which can be unscrewed. Of course, this is just to remove the front key and the back cover, which can clean some dirt on the circuit board, and can also deal with the dirt and dead pixels on the silicon board.

108 keys do not fall off after disassembly. In fact, it is very simple to disassemble the keyboard, first of all, turn the keyboard upside down, there are keys on the side down, pay attention, the whole process of disassembling the keyboard, the keyboard can not be reversed, otherwise, hehe, some of you are busy.

Remove all the screws, yes, and if you remove all the screws and still can't remove the back cover, then it's likely that there is still one that hasn't been removed.

After disassembling all the screws, you can easily remove the back cover, take off the back cover a little lighter, after removing the back cover, you will see a 3-layer plastic film, this is the keyboard film, there is a circuit board in the upper left corner, there are many metal pieces on it, when the keyboard has a problem, take it apart, wipe the metal sheet and then install it back, it can generally be used normally.

One layer further down is more than 100 rubber caps, which are used to trigger and reset the keys, all of which are placed on the grooves on the back of the keycaps, which can be easily removed, which is why I asked you to put the keyboard face down, as long as one accidentally wants to reverse, then you are busy.

It is recommended that you try to reset your computer, reset method: unplug the battery and external power supply, press and hold the power button for 30 seconds to discharge electrostatic electricity;

Dear Lenovo users, hello!

2.If you are going to buy a SATA port hard drive, it is recommended that you check whether the computer has a built-in optical drive, you can choose to replace the optical drive, buy an optical drive to install the hard disk bracket, install the HDD in the optical drive slot, and install the SSD in the original hard disk slot.

3.In the above two cases, you can only remove the mechanical hard disk and replace it with an SSD.

In addition, we do not recommend that you disassemble and assemble the machine yourself for upgrades, as hardware upgrades may cause compatibility and other issues, and problems caused by disassembling the machine without permission are not covered by the warranty. It is recommended that you go to your local Lenovo service station to test the installation, and the service station staff will solve the problem for you.

The simple point is to throw away the optical drive, the optical drive position is placed in the computer, the original hard disk position is placed in the solid state drive, and the SSD is to become faster, but the SSD is empty, so it is necessary to reinstall the system and load it into the SSD, because the optical drive position is also placed in the HDD, so the data will not be lost, and two disks will be displayed after booting, and the SSD Samsung is good.

Updating the graphics driver is actually very simple, and now there are a lot of software that installs the driver that is very easy to use, such as "Driver Wizard", "Driver Master" and a series of software, we can use these software to update the graphics driver. Let's walk through the steps.

After the installation is completed, open the driver wizard, and it will automatically install the driver you need to install according to the existing configuration of your computer. For example, if you don't have a graphics driver, it will automatically install it for you. Plus, he can help you upgrade other computer drivers for free.

Ultrabay expands accessory capabilities.

Not only does the Ultrabay expansion slot have the feature of "hot-swappable" (because the expansion of the graphics card is risky, the Lenovo Y400 does not support hot-swapping), but it is also one of the important ways for laptops to expand peripherals.
