The Lenovo Yoga 2 13" can convert from laptop to tablet, tent, or stand mode with hinges on the side. It was released in January 2014.

Does this laptop have only soldered RAM? Is it not upgradable?

I’ve also just pulled the bottom cover off to take a look and it seems there may be some room for a secondary SSD/HDD in addition to the included M.2 drive.

Am I understanding this correctly? I don’t want to futz around with it much before knowing what’s possible.

@printedwaffles the RAM cannot be upgraded. The Yoga 2 13 has 2 slots: 1 m.2 (that is now used for your SSD) and another connector for a 2.5"  storage device. For some models this is a normal SATA connector, but for most it is a very rare SFF-8784 connector that only connects to the 5mm WD HDD. Found these for part numbers ZIVY0 HDD Bracket : 90205123

ZIVY0 HDD Cable WD : 90205124

Thank you. I was a bit confused after opening it up. There seemed to be some unused space that could potentially fit a laptop drive, but I didn't see a SATA style connector around.

Thanks for the part numbers! I'll be exploring this further.

Too bad about the RAM. Silly Lenovo.

Man, looking these things over, it seems like a ridiculously obscure way to go about adding storage space. It might end up cheaper just getting a larger m.2, and certainly less time consuming.

Again... Silly Lenovo.
