## Flashing instructions
|
|
The flash IC is located at the bottom center of the mainboard. Sadly,
|
|
access to the IC is blocked by the magnesum frame, so you need to disassemble
|
|
the entire laptop and remove the mainboard.
|
|
|
|
Below is a picture of IC on the mainboard, with the pinouts labeled.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The chip will either be a Macronix MX25L6404E (shown above) or a Winbond
|
|
W25Q64CVSIG. Do not rely on dots painted in the corner of the chip (such as
|
|
the blue dot pictured) to orient the pins!
|
|
|
|
For more details have a look at [T420 / T520 / X220 / T420s / W520 common] and
|
|
|
|
```eval_rst
|
|
:doc:`../../flash_tutorial/ext_power`
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Steps to access the flash IC are described here [T4xx series].
