I own an inexpensive laptop from six years back. I recall it had only one motherboard replacement. I’m thinking about upgrading it to run a home server and stream content. Could you help me find the RAM location? I’m just starting out with this kind of project. Thanks ahead of time.

Welcome to the forums, newcomer! You might want to check if you can flip the motherboard and find four rectangular RAM chips, but according to my understanding, the two rectangular ones next to the processor are your RAM. They are soldered onto the motherboard and can't be replaced or upgraded. What is the make and model of your laptop?
