I love this laptop, my work gave me 1 to use I ended up liking it so much I got a personal 1. Iv always turned my nose up to laptops compared to towers but this is the one that made me change my mind!! This laptop is a beast, opening it up logging in and it being ready to go takes seconds. Your never waiting on this thing it's always waiting on you!!

Look at how upgradeable and serviceable it is, the new ones are like this too AFAIK. Thinkpad fanboys complain about Lenovo getting rid of these features but are too attached to a brand name to get an Elitebook.

Exactly what I needed to assure me I was doing the right thing while replacing my battery!

How did you upgraded it? Can you upgrade the G7 with 32gb of ram?

[@muhammad_farid]

Can the wireless wan module be replaced with an SSD 2242?

[@deathsquad1185]

Battery backup?

[@KillerBebe]

What is the largest drive and ram you can upgrade to? Basically I want to max out, I was looking at a p5 2TB and 64 for the ram.

How to reset it's bios? So I can reinstall windows or run a Linux on the fly?

Can you add 2.5 SSD anywhere as secondary drive?

[@CinceTheDay]

Most probaby not. The 2nd M2 slote on the right side (here equipt with a WWAN module) is where you headed. 2:48 The G5 worked if you put a 42mm NVME B+M-Key M2 SSD in there (although it's prompting "not supported WWAN module" on every boot then) you could both from both and select them in the UEFI With the G6 that stopped working and the SSD is just not recognized. So I doubt they're bringing this "feature" back now.

[@jm036]

you have 4TB M.2 SSDs now, why would you need that lol

@@SnipinCatz well I've looked into it and M.2 2242 B+M key should fit and work in WWAN
