Einleitung

Replacing the SSD in your Lenovo Yoga C640-13IML can improve system performance, speed up boot times, and increase overall storage capacity. This guide will walk you through replacing the internal M.2 2242 PCIe NVMe SSD step-by-step.

Caution: Replacing internal components carries a risk of static damage. Always power off the laptop, unplug it from any power source, and disconnect the battery before handling internal parts. Use an anti-static wrist strap if available.
Note: If your laptop is experiencing slow performance, frequent crashes, or isn’t turning on, a faulty SSD may be the cause. Upgrading to a new SSD can resolve these issues and extend your device’s lifespan.
Reminder: Keep track of all screws and cables you remove. Taking photos or labeling components can help make reassembly easier and prevent mistakes.

By following this guide carefully, you'll be able to safely upgrade your storage and give your Lenovo Yoga C640 new life.

Werkzeuge

Schritt 1

Use a Torx T5 screwdriver to remove the six 4.60 mm screws on the sides of the laptop securing the bottom panel.
Keep the screws organized in a pile to make reassembly easier.

Schritt 2

Insert a plastic spudger or opening pick into the seam on the side of the laptop between the bottom panel and the chassis.
Gently slide the tool along this seam to release the internal clips.
Go slowly to avoid cracking or snapping the plastic clips.
Once the internal clips are released, lift the bottom panel off.

Schritt 3

Use a Philips #0 screwdriver to remove the five 4.60 mm Phillips #0 screws securing the battery to the chassis of the laptop.
Keep these screws in a separate pile from the bottom panel screws.

Schritt 4

The battery of the laptop is connected by a short connector cable located at the top of the battery.
Use the flat end of a spudger to lift and unclip the outer edges of the battery. You may need to use your fingers to pull the connector completely out of its socket after loosening it.
Do not pull on the battery wires—only lift from the plastic base of the laptop using a spudger.
To reconnect the connector cable after repair, carefully position the connector over its socket above the battery and press straight down—the connector should snap into place without much force. If you're having trouble, the connector is most likely misaligned. Reposition it and try again.
Lift the battery out of the laptop.
