Hi, I just want to say how happy I am that I finally replaced my old battery which was basically dead with a new one, successfully and I feel happy for it. Right now I’m writing this on that laptop which is charging, but I’m calibrating the battery which is recommended in a manual. Anyone wondering, I ordered it from ifixit store. How is everyone doing?
Sometimes it really is this easy, still an accomplishment. I’m typing this using a Mac Mini which I purchased with minimal RAM, and then maxed out the RAM (64GB) as it was much cheaper that way. With this model (2018) it was necessary to remove nearly everything from the case to access the RAM. I watched the video, made notes, carefully laid out the parts as I disassembled the unit, pulled the old RAM, put in the new, and reversed the ‘disassembly’. Then because I needed to do this on a second one, did the same thing again. All of this was so the home and office computers would be the same. Right to repair, like all rights, needs to be exercised.
