[* black] With the logic board out of its case, we quickly dispatch a few Torx screws to free the RAM from its cage.
- [* black] ''The cage is sorta interesting. Please elaborate/look into it!''
+ [* black] We've seen this kind of thing before in [guide|17828|iMacs of yore|stepid=52541|new_window=true]. This shield allows the RAM to operate at high frequency (2666 MHz) without interfering with other functions.
[* black] At last, we get our hands on that replaceable RAM!
- [* icon_note] We've definitely seen easier RAM access [guide|11262|before|stepid=40350|new_window=true], but this is still a big win over the soldered RAM we've grown accustomed to seeing.
-[* black] With the logic board de-cased and the RAM de-caged, the two SO-DIMM RAM sticks come right out.
- [* icon_note] These are SK hynix [https://www.skhynix.com/products.view.do?vseq=2408&cseq=75|HMA851S6CJR6N|new_window=true] 4 GB DDR4-2666 SDRAM modules, each with four SK hynix [https://www.skhynix.com/products.view.do?vseq=2376&cseq=73|H5AN8G6NCJR|new_window=true] 1 GB DDR4-2666 SDRAM ICs.
