Yes I would like todo it, so I bought a memory card for 4 gb and not working becouse my laptop dell xps 14 use 1 slot memory only. and I need to buy 1 memory card for 8 gb. I can change my bought memory ram for 1 memory card for 8 gb.

No, the RAM is soldered to the logic board in all of those models. You would have to upgrade the whole logic board.

Yes it can be upgraded. In order for it to take laptop ram you'll need to do that with additional memory card.

Probably not. I remember that when I was looking for this laptop there were available only 4 GB RAM. I really dont remember a model with more than that...

Yes, this is possible: you can easily upgrade the HDD and increase the RAM in this computer

This particular model is capable of 16GB maximum across 2 ram slots. The current configuration is 8GB in a 2 x 4GB configuration.

Could you personally upgrade the RAM? Only if you know how to do it and can solder. I wouldn't try it.

Yes, you can.The maximum RAM is 32GB (4x 8GB). make sure you buy DDR3L 1600Mhz sticks.and yeah, there's an empty 2.5 inch SATA slot in this laptop.

There is an access panel on the back to upgrade the RAM, but I do not believe there is any way to upgrade the graphics or sound cards.

Yes it is expandable. There's an access port on the underside of the laptop, as you would expect. There're 2 4Gb sticks in it factory. (I've thrown 2 8Gbs in, but I've seen no performance increase aside from Video editing)

Yes I believe you can add more ram to it. I don't even use this computer anymore so I am unsure of what size ram it has but I have added ram to other computers before.

Yes it is expandable to 8 GB in total. It comes with four GB installed when bought new and the second slot is empty which you can use to install an additional 4 GB. Make sure you use the same configuration as original which is PC 12800, 1600 Mhz DDR3 stick.

No, for this model (not sure about other models) the 4GB RAM is soldered to the motherboard; and so, cannot be upgraded.This is confirmed by other similar models on the Acer website, as well as this memory reseller webpage:http://www.crucial.com/upgrade/Acer-memory/Aspire+Notebooks/Aspire+S3-391-9499-upgrades.html

You can upgrade the ram by replacing it--I've done that. In fact, I upgraded to 8gig. However, you actually take the top off and then work your way down from the top until you get to the ram. I used a Youtube video to walk me through it.

I believe you can. However, there is only one slot of ram and it is occupied with the 4GB dim so you can only replace it with a 8GB dim and that is the most this computer accepts.

If you get the NB with 4GB of Ram can you upgrade to 6 or 8 by using the remaining slot?

Yes, you can. The specification for this model is "up to 32GB" of RAM. However, the standard 8GB that it comes with it located in a "hard-to-reach" area of the computer beneath the keyboard that "only Toshiba techs" can access. The more accessible second bay is where the standard user could insert more RAM to upgrade it. Essentially, the user can upgrade the RAM to 24GB (two 8GB sticks in the second bay + the 8GB the laptop comes with), but--if you buy it from Toshiba (or take it to the Geek Squad)--the user can upgrade to 32GB. There are instructions for accessing the first RAM bay but, I'm told, it's a cumbersome process and not worth the time...you may find that it is. Yes, you can.
