How can I add/upgrade ram on Thinkpad Edge E220s? I've searched everywhere even the U260 since it has the same one piece at the bottom, but could not find any links/site. Any help would be much appreciated.

hi there, i too have been searching the web on this however i found the answer and have successfully upgraded my lenovo thinkpad e220s 2 gb to 4 gb, please refer to lenovo hardware maintance PDF for the picture of how to remove the keyboard.
Hardware Maintenance Manual - ThinkPad Edge E220s
steps to upgrade.
- purchase a 4 gb ddr3 1333mhz ram from your nearby pc shop
- flip your pc around and see 2 screw in the middle of the laptop with the picture label indicate as ram keyboard and screen icon.
- unscrew both screw and flip over, unfold the screen and reveal your keyboard.
- now push your keyboard towards the screen, with a help of a little '-' sign screwdriver to pry the keyboard.
- this will reveal your mainboard and ram is on the bottom right.
- press down the 2 ram guard thingy and swap in the 4 gb ram.
- power on and test your pc if it's upgrade to 4 gb before you put the keyboard back in place.
- and of course, screw back both screw. you don't want to have flying keyboard later on.
- have fun, guide from singaporean tech noobie (this is my first computer, have never ever access to the system before and its pretty easy huh?). google is your best friend.
