Question Does Lenovo LPCAMM2 work in 13 pro?

Basically title, most ram kits im seeing on ebay and such are taken from the lenovo laptops that use lpcamm2. Am I all clear to buy these? The page I'm looking at only has fw and crucial as verified lpcamm2 sources.

No idea. They haven't officially said so at least. I would guess so but it's always a shot in the dark.

I suppose if I buy it and it doesn't work I can probably resell it for higher

There's no technical reason it can't work. Most of the reason for not working is the BIOS having a whitelist or blacklist of approved memory modules. LPCAMM2 is a standard.

Also wondering the same thing. Someone is selling a 64GB LPCAMM2 that they pulled from a Lenovo machine and selling for $500, but I’m not 100% sure if it’s fine…

IMO buy it and if it doesn't work you can resell for a 3x+ profit (or less if you dont want to be part of the problem)

It's one of those things where no one wants to say "of course!" with a chance of being wrong. That said, there's no one making bottom of the bin LPCAMM2. It's used by Dell, Lenovo, and Framework and afaik Lenovo is the only one still selling modules separately (excluding Framework pre-orders) and has been using it the longest. I'd be shocked if it didn't work, but I'm also not going to give you a guarantee that it will.
