    When scrapping a laptop.

    Ok, so when you are breaking down a laptop, there are many boards in there. From the motherboard to the little one for the camera in the lid. I even take out the board behind the touch pad. I was wondering how one would sort these boards. Also there are little flat ribbon cables I guess you can say that connect thing to the board. They usually have a blue pull tab. Are these silver?

    As I understand it so far as a new e-scrapper

    High Grade boards
    • Motherboard
    • HDD logic board
    • CD/DVD board


    Low Grade boards
    • USB (if not connected directly to the MOBO)
    • Board under the screen (after the fascia of the LCD has been removed)
    • any boards that buttons push like power button, right and left click etc.
    • Board for touch pad (though it looks as if it has a lot of gold on it).


    Silver
    • Keyboard velums
    • ribbon cables.


    Do I have this right?
