Memory
Memory in the Sony VAIO Pro SVP11 is soldered and cannot be upgraded. It is worth knowing this before paying anyone for a memory upgrade.
Windows repair and reinstall
This model does not meet Microsoft’s Windows 11 requirements, and Windows 10 reached end of support in October 2025. We can advise on the realistic options, including a lightweight Linux or ChromeOS Flex installation.
Battery replacement
A new internal battery is fitted and tested through a full charge and discharge. A battery of this age that swells should be replaced before it damages the trackpad or casing.

Known issues with the VAIO range
- Sony stopped making VAIO laptops in 2014, so parts are refurbished or salvaged, and we check availability before quoting.
- Some VAIO Z and Pro models use unusual SSD formats, which matters for data recovery.

Questions
Can the SSD or memory in the Sony VAIO Pro SVP11 be upgraded?
The SSD can be replaced with a larger M.2 drive. Memory is soldered and cannot be upgraded.
My Sony VAIO Pro SVP11 will not turn on. Is my data lost?
Usually not. The drive is separate from the fault in most cases, and we can remove it and copy your files even if the machine itself is not worth repairing.
How much does a Sony VAIO Pro SVP11 screen replacement cost?
Price confirmed before work starts. The exact figure depends on the part your machine needs, and we confirm it before any work starts.
Is a 2013 Sony VAIO Pro SVP11 still worth repairing?
It depends on the fault. A battery, SSD or charging socket is usually worth doing. A major board repair on an older machine may cost more than the machine is worth, and if that is the case we will say so.
