Opening This Box Laptop Modification

How do I get this open? I am assuming the RAM is hidden under there. This is a Lenovo Flex 4-1470.

Page 42 of the maintenance manual tells how to access the memory card. One of the required screws to be removed is under a sticker, and opening it voids the warranty should that be important.

The memory is on a mini PCI Express card.

Apologies, yes I was, there are clips along the edge of that case. You can see them pretty clearly on the clos eup pic by the QR code. I bent those slightly back around the whole thing and then used a small flathead and pried it upwards, very little pressure and it popped off.

That particular laptop runs a SODIMM RAM. I replaced the 4GB DDR4 with a 16 GB from Corsair.

The disk drive which was 500GB was raplced with a 240 GB SSD from Aireye.
