    • Using either tweezers or your fingers, disconnect the black battery cable by pinching either side of the connector and pulling towards the battery.

    • Carefully lift and remove the battery.

    If you have the right tools, this is really straightforward to do. Took me about 10 minutes. The instructions are very accurate.

    Regarding the battery connector, the male plug is attached to the battery wiring (you will know what I mean when you look at it) and the female socket is attached to the logic board. There are small ridges on either side of the plug that can be grasped with fingernails to gently tease the plug out of the socket.

Thank you. This looks much easier than I imagined that it would.

Why do you remove the battery? Can't you just unhook the battery cable?

You dont have to remove the battery at all to access the SSD

I don't think this guide is 100% accurate, in that the Yoga 3 Pro (mine anyway) ONLY supports SATA3, and NOT NVME(PCIe), for the SSD interface.

As such, if you order, and try to install the Crucial P5 drive (after imaging the old drive to the P5), it will NOT recognize it, in the BIOS, because it can't bootstrap (or in any way, really) the drive.

Maybe there were multiple motherboards, with different chipsets, for the Yoga3 Pro, I have no idea, on this part, but I know the one we have is definitely limited, to SATA3.

@CPSU-MANESS-F15S12G17 (I hope this tags the team, I couldn't figure out how to tag Federico+LopezCasildo, directly, so I'm tagging "the team"), you might want to review this, and adjust, accordingly (there are plenty of SATA3 drives that can/will work, with this system).
