![]() Windows does not offer to sign in with a Microsoft account because it does not detect the WiFi. The actual installation is straightforward, although you need extremely good eyesight to work the disk partitioning dialog on the 276 dpi screen – that part of setup is not scaled yet. ![]() Both are really tiny and not typically found in a household. You need a Torx T4 to remove the 10 screws holding the laptop’s back cover, and a Philips PH00 to remove the screw holding the M.2 SSD (the arrow in the picture above points right to it). If you have the right screwdrivers, that is. The replacement process itself is extremely simple. Replacing the M.2 SSDĪs you can see in the screenshot above, 2280 M.2 SSD are really tiny – about the size of my thumb. I could not check the Yoga’s because I could not get my hands on an NVMe SSD. Most modern UEFIs should be able to do that. The Samsung SSD 950 Pro is an NVMe device, which makes up part of its appeal, but if you cannot buy it…īefore getting an NVMe SSD make sure the machine’s UEFI (BIOS) code is capable of booting from NVMe. SATA is a bit slower, NVMe offers higher maximum throughput as well as lower latency. When buying an M.2 SSD please keep in mind that they are available in different sizes (the Yoga 900 needs the 2280 variety named after its 22mm x 80mm outer dimensions) and protocols: SATA and NVMe. So I went for the Transcend MTS800 instead. ![]() I would have preferred the Samsung SSD 950 Pro, as that currently seems to be the fastest M.2 SSD, but strangely it is not available in Germany at all. That is a bit on the small side for me, so I decided to buy the device with the 256 GB SSD and replace the drive with a 1 TB SSD myself. The Lenovo Yoga 900 is only available with 256 of 512 GB SSDs. ![]() This article explains how to upgrade the SSD and install a clean Windows 10 Pro without any Lenovo bloatware. There is not much we can do about the former, but we can change latter two pretty easily. The only downsides I found so far: glossy display, maximum SSD size is 512 GB, OS is Windows Home, not Pro. The Lenovo Yoga 900 packs some amazing hardware in an ultraportable 1.29 kg 13″ chassis: high-resolution 3200×1800 screen, Intel Core i7-6500U CPU, 16 GB RAM.
