ThinkPad X240

RAM upgradability

This model has a single SODIMM socket, which supports up to 8GB of RAM (PC3-12800 DDR3L SDRAM 1600MHz SODIMM). The CPU does not support more than 8GB of RAM per SODIMM module.

Disassembly

Any internal component replacement or upgrade (including hard disk and expansion cards) requires opening the back cover. Keyboard replacement requires full assembly and disassembly of the system board, and fresh thermal paste for the CPU heatsink.

Opening the case involves two stages:

  • Opening a handful of screws (these have tiny retainer rings made of transparent plastic; be careful not to drop them when removing the back cover).
  • Carefully prying apart dozens of little fragile plastic latches. This requires a plastic case opening tool to avoid damage (a metal screwdriver will nick and scratch the plastic).
