Easy Question about the ThinkPad Edge E430
Hi! I'm planning to buy a Thinkpad E430. Does anyone know if it is easy to upgrade the hard drive and RAM memory? On most laptops it is easy but since I have never bought a Lenovo laptop before, I just wanted to make sure before I pull the trigger. Indeed, I found the customization on Lenovo's page to upgrade from a 4GB to 8GB rather high (over $100) so that I rather do it myself.
I would appreciate any feedback. Thanks!

Hello and welcome to the Forum
Yes, it's a very easy DIY project. Just follow the HMM (Hardware Maintenance Manual) here: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/product ... D=UM014301

Thanks Thinkpad Lover! PDF file made it very clear on how easy it is to upgrade the RAM and the hard drive. Really appreciate it!

The only thing to remember is that to get the back plate back on, you may have to apply a little pressure to get the edges to 'click' back into the correct slots. But otherwise, it is a very serviceable machine.
