A: Yes, for this model, X1404ZA-I38128, it has an extra slot. It can detect up to 24 GB of RAM. Additionally, if you were wondering, the storage space is also expandable up to 4TB.
Q: How do I get this out of S Mode? Every time I try it tells me something went wrong.
A: I ran into that "something went wrong" error many times when trying to use the Microsoft method of disabling S mode on my new Windows 11 Home - Vivobook. As a Linux technician, this was quite frustrating. I need to be able to install multiple browsers and Windows Sub-system Linux (from the Windows Store!) to able to work. That is not possible in S Mode. I also learned that you can't just use function keys to access the BIOS menu any longer. My 17yo daughter helped me find an accurate YouTube video to assist. First, I edited the Registry Hive Key to disable the policy that forces S Mode to be enabled. If you're not familiar - BE EXTREMELY CAUTIOUS IN THE REGISTRY! This gentleman (CyberCPU Tech) shows how to do that part, as well as if you are having trouble opening the Registry Editor thanks to Windows security measures: https://youtu.be/ZTWKvDF1dqI. He indicates that you may not need to do anything else in order to disable S Mode. I had to also use Windows Settings >> System >> Recovery to "Restart Now" (related to Advanced startup) in order to access the BIOS. This article may be helpful with that part: https://www.wikihow.com/Turn-Off-S-Mode-in-Windows-11. I used the second method, "Without a Microsoft Account", even though I have a Microsoft account and was logged into it at the time. From the blue landing page, use "Troubleshoot" to see the Advanced Options to get into "UEFI Firmware Settings", aka BIOS. Once the BIOS menu opens, look at the top for the "Security" tab. On the Security tab you should find "Secure boot" enabled. Disable it, save & exit. Double check in Windows >> Settings >> System >> About to verify that S Mode is no longer present. Best of luck!
