This safeguards against any potential data loss during the upgrade.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Handling the SSD<\/strong>: Always hold the SSD by the edges to prevent damage from static electricity or oils from your fingers. Make sure to handle the SSD carefully to maintain its integrity.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Avoiding Pressure<\/strong>: Do not exert force on the SSD. Excessive pressure can damage the delicate components and lead to hardware failure.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Shock Absorption<\/strong>: When not installed, place the SSD on a padded or soft surface such as a piece of cloth or foam. This practice helps to minimize the risk of shock or vibration that could compromise the SSD&#8217;s functionality.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"14-post-upgrade-testing-ensuring-flawless-functionality\">ThinkPad E14 Gen 4 Post-Upgrade Testing: Ensuring Flawless Functionality<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After completing the upgrades, it&#8217;s crucial to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Boot up your ThinkPad to verify it recognizes the new SSD and RAM.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check system performance to ensure everything is functioning smoothly.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"15-upgrade-warnings-risks-mitigation\">Upgrade Warnings: Risks Mitigation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Upgrading without a certified technician may impact your warranty.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use an anti-static wrist strap to prevent damage from static electricity.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ensure proper installation to avoid system instability or damage.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Always backup critical data before undertaking any hardware modifications.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"16-additional-resources-\"><strong>Additional Resources:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/download.lenovo.com\/pccbbs\/pubs\/tp_e14_15_gen4\/html_en\/index.html#t=en%2Fcover.html\">Thinkpad E14 Use Manual<\/a> from Lenovo<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/49psYRx\">Crucial RAM 16GB DDR4 3200MHz<\/a>.
