Remove it at an angle and not straight up so you don't damage the socket.

this is the only step thats needed. all the ram is accessable through this panel. DO NOT TAKE APART YOUR WHOLE LAPTOP FOR THIS

this man has no idea what he is talking about and i have ruined my keyboard following the steps below and now must type with onscreen keyboard

once you open this panel the ram is visible and you merely need to flip open the catches on either side.
