Many thanks - just installed a 1TB HD into our L340 - one minor issue is the connecting table flip-over flange popping out (or having a malfunctioning hinge). The good news is you can still insert the flat cable and secure with some electric tape and that all gets sandwiched and held in place by the M2 SSD reinsertion :)

thanks for the video! Lucky for me, my came with the HDD caddy but no sata cable nor hdd. Going to order the cable and attach the HDD from my previous laptop.

@DanielPichl 4 года назад

I went a similar way - bought an L340 with i7-9750HF, 8GB RAM, 256GB NVMe and 1TB HDD (as I wanted to have this caddy already here - and the disk can still be used as an external drive in an USB case). So, I swapped the RAM against 16GB, had both an NVMe 2TB SSD and a SATA 2TB SSD. OS had to be installed manually anyway (the laptop came with FreeDOS), so no migration necessary. Your video definitely helped me choosing this procedure, and this machine is really a beast of a laptop in this price range.

@sssoban 2 года назад

bro can you tell me which ram u used for upgradation?

@DanielPichl 2 года назад

@@sssoban it was a 16GB Crucial DDR4-2400 module (1.2V) - in the meantime, I had switched with a 32GB Crucial DDR4-2666 module (system uses it at 2400MHz). Make sure that the RAM works with 1.2V and is at least DDR4-2400.

@sssoban 2 года назад

@@DanielPichl ok thanks. Also warzone is unplayable on 8 gbs, does 16 gigs fix that? Or is 1050 not the one for warzone?

@DanielPichl 2 года назад

@@sssoban guess the game should definitely take profit of the RAM. Can't tell you how it would perform as I don't play it, but as far as I could see via Google, Warzone can take up to 12-13GB(!), so 16GB should do good. As for games I play, BF4 runs quite well (around 80FPS on 1080p), and BFV runs OK (although some Pacific maps do drag me down to the 20-30FPS, even on low settings). And Cities Skylines (a memory hog if you play with some mods and lots of assets - my game takes easily 20GB+ of RAM) made me upgrade to 32GB of RAM, so it does not have to use the page file.

Hi! Interestingly, this is actually available in the Philippines with a "sort of" dual-channel option, but only for the i5 variants (i7 versions are stuck with 8gb single channel). Our i5 variants here have 4gb ddr4 2400mhz soldered onboard, but have 1 open ram slot on the board, capable of 20gb (4+16 dual channel) max! They recently announced a sale here where you could grab an i5/4gb/512ssd/gtx1650 for around 43,995 philippine pesos, or roughly US$876 (with tax applied) with MS Office 2019 Home & Student preinstalled and 2 years Onsite premium care warranty and a separate 2.5" drive bracket out of the box. What do you think of this option?

@roddypantheon 4 года назад

I have this i5 variant but gtx 1050.. I've read in spec sheet it has only 16gb max offering? Is that true? That's why I'm thinking of only adding 8gb.. is it safe to maximize it to 20gb?

Hello Jarrod/everyone, I followed your tutorial on my Lenovo L340 step by step with the same components. Actually everything worked smoothly, so first of all thank you so much. However now I've got the feeling that maybe my laptop is overheating too much (80°/85° in MSI afterburner on Pes20 and GTA5) mostly in the zone of the Ram. Because of this I'd really appreciate your feedback in your experience after upgrading the laptop, thus I can know if these temperatures are normal or not (I also have an airflow cooler). The only thing I have changed besides the new ram and SSD it's the internal configuration to run games with the 1650 in the Nvidia control panel instead of the default configuration (which I think it's kind of a mix between both GPUs, correct me if I'm wrong). Would you guys have some ideas or advice about this? Thank you in advance 😊 .

I was wondering if it is possible to do this same thing to a LENOVO L340-17IRH 81LL? It's the Intel i7 version, and I am hitting lower memory so I want to install the Samsung SSD that you've shown

Does anyone know how to fix the ELAN Touchpad driver issue? There's no ELAN tab in the device manager. I cannot two-finger tap right-click.

Is it still worth buying this laptop or waiting for a newer model? I don't really know much about the upgrade cycle of these machines.

I've noticed that there is an I7 variant of this laptop, I already did the SSD expansion upgrade and ram, would the chassis of the i5 variant be compatible with the i7 motherboard?

How do you migrate something some an old system to a new system using a secondary system? I'm planning on changing the original SSD. Also, my other question is if I reinstall windows, do I have to purchase it?

Hi I have a Lenovo L340 gaming when I scan it with crucial website to show how many slot for Ram in there I found that there are 4GB Ram soldered to the motherboard and one standard slot. So it should give 2 slot Ram performance right?

I'm buying the same laptop but with a different configuration. Is it possible for the RAM to be soldered on or is the RAM always upgradable regardless of laptop configuration?
