You don't. Nobody touched it.
What I know of hardware would go in a gnat's eye. But when the
tech unscrewed the two little screws and took the back plate off (NB :
voiding the warranty), the memory stick slipped out and the new one in,
just like in any other computer.
With a slight push at the exposed corner, the card comes far
enough out to pull the rest of the way, and the new one slips in.
No soldering iron need apply.

I should certainly try something like that, especially while I'm
checking out umpteen distros; some of them might be able to use those --
assuming you give each its own partition??
