Introduction

Note that the left side daughterboard contains the ports on the left side of the computer when viewed from the keyboard side, so it will be on the right side of the computer when viewed from the open bottom panel. If you were actually looking for the right side daughterboard guide, it can be found here.

Be sure to unplug and completely turn off your device before you start working.
