A computer uses RAM for short term data storage. When you open a web browser or play a game, the computer temporarily stores the information for the program in RAM. Adding extra RAM can let you run more programs at a time or keep more tabs open in your browser before the computer starts running slowly.
The Lenovo YOGA 730-15IKB comes from the factory with RAM soldered to the motherboard. This soldered RAM cannot be upgraded or removed.
Luckily, the YOGA 730 also has a slot for adding extra RAM that is easily accessible. If you would like to add more RAM to your computer, follow this guide to locate the RAM upgrade slot.
When buying RAM, be aware that the slot can only fit SODIMM type RAM sticks.

Thank you so much for this guide! Do you have to do anything with the SSD? Some videos about this say you have to change it but don’t go into detail as to why.
I’m glad you found the guide helpful! You should be able to upgrade your RAM without needing to touch the SSD at all (and vice versa). Neither component should have an impact on the other. The videos probably mention the RAM and SSD together because its convenient to do both upgrades at once.
What RAM and what amount of memory would be good to increase to this model?
I installed a Viper Steel 32Gb DDR4 PC4-21300 2666MHz SO-DIMM. My system now registers 40 Gb of RAM at 2400 MHz.
Performance is a huge jump over the 8 Gb I had before. I upgraded the SSD to a WD Black 1Tb , a Intel AX210 wireless card and this memory. This system is a much different system. Very fast windows 11 machine now. It was always a fast system, but its performance is noticeably improved greatly.
I thought the max the system could be upgraded to was 16 gb, you were able to upgrade to 40? what was the stock ram that came soldered to the system? have one of these laying around at a family members thinking of picking up to upgrade and pass down to a friend.

George, your comments are single handedly giving me the confidence to upgrade my computer like I wanted to! I thought I wouldn't be able to upgrade the RAM because of the 16gb ram limit. Plus my WIFI chip has been acting up for most of the computer's life (Constantly loosing connectivigy) and i was worried I could only replace it with the exact same one. I had heard that many Lenovo computers have issues with upgrading Wifi cards, but I also didn't want to get a replacement of the exact same wifi card I was already having problems with.
Seeing your comments on this post and the other post about replacing WIFI chips is so nice because now I can replace things and know that what I'm putting in my computer will work! I replaced my wifi card yesterday, and I'm so relieved to have consistent working wifi again!
So thank you for your comments on these posts!
@daleg30240 - The system has 8 Gb soldered on the board (2400 MHz.) I bought it with 16 Gb. The SODIM was 8 Gb (2667 MHz). In playing around with memory I bought for my iMac 2017 5K 27 inch, I decided to test a 32 Gb SODIM (2667 MHz) in the memory slot. I saw that I got 40 Gb of RAM at 2400 MHz. I put the SODIM back in my iMac and bought the SODIM mentioned above. I was also able to replace the wifi card with an intel AX wifi card with Bluetooth 5.3. I installed a 1 Tb WD black SSD (I had a 512 SSD previously). This system now running Windows 11 is significantly better. Virtually no lag in any operation.
Very useful post. Thank you. Maybe I am old school but IMHO, you should unplug the battery connector immediately after removing the back cover. Then proceed to replace your SSD, add RAM, clean fans, etc. Better safe than sorry.
