Just looking for advice/opinion. I bought from ebay, what i thought was an x220 Thinkpad with 8G of RAM…turned out only to have 4. I left a bad review but will keep the machine. I put Arch/Sway anyway.

I want to add RAM…i think it can go up to 16. I looked on line and i think it would be about $50 to buy the memory…so i thought o would find an online tutorial and add the memory myself…is this a bad idea?

I was wrong, it’s even easier than I thought. Here is a step-by-step manual if you like: https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Lenovo+ThinkPad+X220+RAM+Replacement/71889
