I'm reading conflicting statements. What's best for a laptop's battery? Leaving it plugged in, constantly draining the battery, taking the battery out while plugged in, etc. There has to be a scientific answer instead of all this guesswork.

It's an "8 Cell Smart Lithium Ion Battery Pack, 76.96Wh"

A general answer: Li-ion batteries lose capacity depending on temperature. So keep your battery cool (and dry) to preserve its life. If your battery is 100% charged, the loss of capacity is larger than at 50% charge, so in general, don't store your battery at 100%, and don't leave it charging while at 100% and in use.
