      • Flip the device over and lay it down with the underside facing upwards.

      • Unscrew all 8 screws. While they should not come out completely, in some cases, the plastic retaining washers may come off of one or more of the screws, allowing them to come out completely. - should this happen, look for a loose, tiny black plastic washer once the case is open. It's possible, in some cases, to reattach the retaining washer.

My t450s comes with an internal battery. The comment on this guide records the process for disabling the internal battery temporarily.

I also used this guide from Lenovo as I found removing the back plate rather difficult.
