Really helpful. I upgraded my Sony VAIO Fit with SSD, more RAM, and new WiFi card 😎👍
thanks for your support
hey man, I'm replacing the shitty wifi card in mine. Which did you buy that worked?
@@canzosis75 Same question here. Looking for a 802.11ac card that work in it.
Great Video man! Can you do a tutorial how to open the screen. My screen isnt working anymore and i think that the cable that connects the screen with the motherboard isn’t plugged in very well
Thanks for the help bro 👌
finaly i found this video!! no more videos about this laptop in UA-cam.
this is an old laptop
For anyone else looking for a more detailed video on this laptop, head to Fire Bird Tech - two vids on SVF15N.
Thank you! This Notebook is real Horror ...
Very nice explenation in video! Thanks a lot!
thanks for your support
Great video! i want to replace the keyboard, is it necessary to open?
yes it is as you need to remove everything to get to the keyboard

Congratulations on the post. I have a laptop of the same make and model. I had to change the battery because it only worked with the charger. Now with the new battery it does not work, only with the charger. Would you have any idea why the computer does not decrypt the battery?
your battery function/part is faulty. so the laptop does not read/know your laptop battery is connected. basically you have a laptop without a battery that is whats happening. i have seen this before and you can actually fix it but requires you to see a computer store as you need to replace one of the chips on the motherboard
Thank you for this video
thanks for your support
Can you do a video on keyboard replacement for the z flip?
sorry no longer have the item to do so
Thank you for the great video!
I have an SVF15N1S2ES laptop. You mentioned that you can put 2x8 GB RAM ("16 gigs in total") but on its datasheet the max. supported memory is 8GB. Does that mean that 8GB / slot ?
Now there are 2x4GB RAM modules in it and I want to upgrade it to 2x8GB but I am little bit confused now.
Oh and one more question: is it possible to change the wireless card to one that supports 802.11ac as well?
Thank you for your answers in advance.
CPU is solder on, graphic card is solder on, ram can be changed to 16GB max with 8GB in each slot and there is 2 slots, wireless card can be changed, and hard drive is a 2.5" inch thin 7mm thick.
the data sheet is old probably why it doesnt say 16GB as it didnt exist when they created the sheet. this is not an apple, if it fits in the slots then it should work. i have 7260ac in mines back then and it works
Thank you very much for your detailed answer!
@@pezosanta Hey there, did you replace the ram with 16GB and upgrade the wireless card? Which wireless card did you replace it with to support 802.11ac?
@@pezosanta Bro, did you upgrade the RAM ?
Great teardown video bro... my laptop's hdd is crashed can you guide me what is the model number of compatible hdd with sony vaio fit svf15n17sns?
any 2.5 inch hard drive that 7mm will work. most of them are now that size if you buy an older hard drive it will be 9mm thick
OPEN ME UP I shall be highly thankful if you can point me to the link of compatible HDD... i am planing to buy it online but not sure if it doesn't work.
Also tell me whether i can install SSD into it or i should stick to HDD
Many thankz
most ssd at 7mm thick only issues are normal hard drives which most are 9mm thick. the best SSD are samsung and intel but really any would do. i have provided you with an example below. www.pccasegear.com/products/37578?gclid=Cj0KEQiAh4fEBRCZhriIjLfArrQBEiQArzzDAXTrgKM-6tLodzSSWw2b4VO-0iqhXQv-TA0ITuMSRsIaArdI8P8HAQ&gclsrc=aw.ds
Thanks for the video! I changed the hdd for a ssd hdd but now the laptop will not power on any more. What could be wrong? Any help would be appreciated
this quite common. you must have forgot something. so does the laptop turn on? does the fan spin? is there any beeping sound?
My sony vaio laptop is just same as that one, but out of nowhere stop displaying, if I connect it to the TV using HDMI it works, so I guess the screen is gone, how to replace the screen??
if you are asking me you dont. as it is a hard and complex process. if you needing help to do this you shouldnt be doing it yourself. also this is an old laptop and not worth the cost of replacing the screen
Hello and thank you for the video.Is there any way an M.2 SSD can be installed? thx in advance
nope it is too old and doesnt have a m.2 slot
Hi . I wanto remove hinge cove . U can help me
that mean i can buy flex cable sony vaio fit 14,,,,and use it for fit 13? will work for fit 13?
@Scott Chou Hi, I have a “Sony VAIO SVF14N2A4ES Fit 14A Multi-flip 14” Laptop”. The Disk usage shows 100% so whilst I was searching for a solution I found myself on this video and comments. I wonder what is a good SSD that I can use to replace my 1TB HDD. Video description says that you’ve used: “Samsung Electronics 840 EVO-Series 1TB”. I suppose this is an older model and not sold anymore, so what would be a compatible SSD for my laptop? Thanks.
if it fits in the slot it should work as this is not an apple. most likely your hard drive is faulty and needs to be replace. you can buy anything that will fit. now you can get an samsung 870quo sata 2.5inch
@@OpenMeUpTec Thank you. Whilst the laptop back cover is opened up, I might go for a memory upgrade also. My laptop comes as 8GB RAM. I assume it comprises if 2x 4GB Rams on 2 separate slots. I heard previously that you cannot install 1x 8GB RAM on certain laptops. So to max it up to 16GBs, would I need 2x 8GB DDR3 modules? If so what make would you recommend please?
@@TiredParent if you going to change it then buy 2x8. no you can use a single 1x8 if you want or even 4 and 8
it has too much purpose unknown cable inside the chassis, so it has lots strange problem, if it change to single high reliable PCB motherboard just like macbook , I will buy it
probably why they dont make this anymore and there is really no reason to open up the new macbooks as there is nothing you can do if you open them up
I don't have the 15a, rather the 15n26ccxb, but do you have a recommended wifi card?
what si wrong with your current one. normally most laptops come with a intel 8260ac which is like $20AUD
Excuse me, do you know where can I buy a new battery for my Vaio fit 15A???
type in the battery model number and you will be able to find it off ebay and other sites
Do you know a link where I can buy a replacement motherboard for this specific laptop?
nope its too old
where is to buy casing laptop sony vaio, please .................
unless you can find a used one somewhere, you wont be able to find it.
thx
Hello I think this is the laptop I have but I’m not sure but do you think I can replace my gt 735m with a gtx 780m because I want to speed up my laptop
nope it is soldered on
@@OpenMeUpTec damn ok well I guess ima save for a PC thanks for letting me know sir
Is the network card mini or half mini?
mini
bro great video need your help do you know where the back light fuse is located ?
thanks for your support. sorry cant help you as i dont know where the fuse is. i never knew they even had fuses in laptops
No problem did some diging and found images of the motherboard and found out fuse is located on the bottom bypassed it now the back light is back on
guys, how is the keyboard connected ? I have an issue with the keyboard all of a sudden, it just doesn't work. A week before I had it repaired and I think the aftermath of the repair can be the culprit i.e. my screen wouldn't hold anymore as all of the plastic through which the screws went got broken long story short is that the repair guy used shit lots of glue. The monitor holds and moves smoothly. BUUUUT when I try to lift back plastic I see that some thick cables(the ones at the top of the pc, close to the monitor) got glued to the plastic piece I am trying to remove! Are those cables related to the keyboard in any way or just the screen? Also have no clue how to detach those cables now, should I just shatter the old back piece until there is only a bit of it left on a cable and get a new one instead :D ? looking forward to your reply on this one very much
Your camera shot is way too far away from the motherboard to see necessary details
thanks for your support i will remember for my future videos
Hello mate , is there any mini pci-e port left? I want to connect an external gpu that way!
nope. companies dont just make a port and leave it there. if they do it is normally only for your mobile 4G wireless cards.
OPEN ME UP Thats sad , i remember some older ones having one but i guess not anymore... Thank you!!
Anybody knows what are the screws for the back cover ? Most of mines are gone, didn't even notice until recently, when the case started to fall apart from screen openin.. :(
if you get the user manual i think it tells you what they are
@@OpenMeUpTec lol, one month ago this screws "problem" feels like good knews compared to what I have now :D
how to replace keyboard
you need to remove everything as the keyboard is the last part
where is remove display
you can get the user manual and it should show you how to do it
hello dear,,i have a question,, is flex cable of lcd sony fit 13 is same flex cable of sony fit 14? aslo where can i buy flex cable for fit 13,,thanks
+mohamed sayed normal cables for screens in the for in the same model range is the same but the length is not. the bigger laptops with have long cable compared to the smaller ones. i will assume it is the same but i doubt you will find one. try ebay, also cables have a sticker on it which tells you the part number.
