Is Sys memory, video and cpu upgradeable? Plus, what's all in the box upon arrival?

Memory can be expanded to 8GB. You can install a low profile video card in the unit. The unit will be ready to use out of the box. Thanks

It cannot be upgraded, but its performance is good for everything I use: cloud, raid, network folders, torrent.... I have not tried yet, but friends tell me that video stream is slow. Audio works fine.

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.

It's OK. But my recommendation will be upgrading the ram memory. If you add more RAM will be fine

If I remember correctly 2 gig of ram and a 250Gb Hd were stock. Min is upgraded to 8Gb of ram and an SSD for the system drive.

Yes, you can. Any video card is compatible with this processor. If you are installing both items new, just remember to change your Bios Graphics Settings to PCI, before first boot.

Not officialy at least, but you can read in forums about people who upgraded it successfuly. Upgrading the RAM may void Synology warranty, so be careful.DS412+ performs pretty well with 1GB though. No need to upgrade unless you have a very specific application in mind.

I would have to look but i think you can upgrade to 32 gigs of ram, i believe there is three more open bays.

I don't know the answer to that question. The PC meets my needs as is and I have never looked into possible upgrades. Sorry.

I wish that I could answer this with 100% confidence, but I can't. I'm guessing that you won't have any issues as it has all of the proper timings and settings. The install is very easy, so I would just try it out. Do give the system plenty of time to boot. First time I booted with the new memory, I "freaked out" a bit thinking that the system wasn't going to boot - AGAIN - with a memory upgrade. I had tried some other memory that I had laying around.... that was a flop! It did boot, it just seemed to take a bit longer than the first time. Good luck!

I found this YouTube video very helpful: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CO-Z7y9Ge4g. You can see exactly what needs to be done, where to find the parts and what to expect. Adding the RAM is a great low-cost enhancement to this nifty little computer.

Yes both can be upgraded. However there is only one so-DIMM socket so I think 8GB is max at the moment. If you go to Dell.com/support you can get find the manual for any of there hardware.

Absolutely, give it few GB of ram and a proper mSata SSD, you're good to go.

I can't find anything specific regarding upgrading the memory, so my guess is that the memory can't be upgraded.

I can't actually answer your question (yet, going to install soon) however since the upgrade to 2gb (via two 1gb chips) is only around $30 here on amazon it seems silly not to upgrade.. also waiting on my memory so I'll post back with my experiences :)

Not out of the box, but it can with updated BIOS You can find the latest BIOS version on Asus website

I do not believe the RAM can be upgraded. Not sure about any other hardware.
