I watched a lot of videos to see if someone say to remove battery first, you are the first one saying it after a lot of videos. BIG LIKE ! I wanted to add one more SSD to one Legion Pro 5 2024, after i open the plastic cover and try to unscrew ssd metal protection it makes one little spark when i touch the screw with screwdriver, after that when i finish, the laptop doesn't charge anymore. Lucky for me, the laptop had just arrived the day before and the store refunded my money when i send it back:)) also a little to strange, because i have an 5 years old Legion and it went through a lot of industrial sites, dust, bad environment , blowing with compressed air, disassembled several times for cleaning, etc. and still works perfectly. I know you need to remove battery but I was in a hurry so I dont give so much importance. As a warning, ALWAYS REMOVE BATTERY after you open the cover ! :))

If I'm not mistaken... you have to enable xmp for intel, and expo for amd in the bios in order to get the full RAM feequency of 5600. But lenovo does not allow you to do so, for whatever reason they don't give the end user access to memory speed overclocking in their bios. It's unfortunate, lenovo is my favorite gaming laptop brand, but they are leaving basic pc functionality on the table with this decision. Memory overclocking is basically standard practice at this point as the advertised RAM speeds when purchasing RAM is the overclocked speed..

Thanks for the reply if so and would love to know the limits as i've set my eyes on what i thought might be best which are : Kingston FURY Impact 32Go (2x16Go) 4800Mhz & Samsung SSD 990 Pro M.2 - 2Tb

That was exactly the pro 5i that I got :) Ram wise you can upgrade to 64gb fury and although it wont hit 5600mhz I would still buy that kit instead of the 4800 because the timings are faster (unless there is a big price difference in your region, in the UK there is not much difference). SSD wise, you can run up to 2x 4tb SSD thanks to the new Samsung 990 pro single sided SSDs (recently covered these drives in a video if you are interested.
