How thick is the SSD?
typical standart 2,5 70 x 7 x 100 ΠΌΠΌ
Have seen several comments that those SSDs in the Yoga 3 14 are 5mm versus the normal 7mm thick. Also seen it in a Lenovo reference spec sheet. Just wondering if you really had a 7mm version. That would be great since an upgrade has plenty of options if they are now using standard sized 2.5 in SATA drives.
yes, they use 5mm versus. You right, but 7mm versus can instal too.
I am wondering if this is the Yoga 3 14″ with 5th gen intel processors, because i can’t find any store that sell this orange version… the only options that i can see, are black and white…
How many RAM dimms has this notebook?
Can i switch this SSD, for a HDD (2.5″ 1TB)?
Regards
Lenovo Yoga 3 14 only have one RAM slot, you can upgrade the HDD to 1TB

Hello,
Is it possible to remove and change the graphic card ?
For the model with intel hd grapics (I’d like to install a nvidia card)
the graphic card can not change, because it is soldered on the motherboard
Thanks Chris, I wasn’t sure about that
My Yoga 3 14 is frozen. I need to reset my BIOS.
Where is exactly the CMOS battery to unplug for a while.
I have spilled some coffee on my Keyboard, the laptop still OK, but the keys are now sticky, what is the way to clean it up, and how would I take the keyboard out?
I’m not sure why the laptop did not die on me, is it rugged?
Hi. My Lenovo Yoga 3 14 wont power up. It doesn’t seem to be a problem with the battery (it doesn’t power up at all when plugged in without the battery in either) Ive replaced the USB power cord and tried a different appropriate power supply to no avail. I’m thinking it is the USB cable connected to the motherboard??? Can I buy this internal USB3.0 cable part and fit myself? Thanks & apologies for my ignorance if i’m wasting your time
I cant find the CMOS in this notebook, got turn off while plugin it, never to come back again, tryed clearing flea power holding power for 2 mins, just in case.
tryed pressing 10 times, and then holding for 2 mins.
also while the battery is unplug.
Any help would be welcome.
