One of the lenovo twist models is supposed to have a soldered RAM. Is this model different? Does it have memory slots which will allow me to upgrade the RAM?

I haven't physically opened to verify whether or not the RAM can be upgraded however from reviewing the specifications I would assume the RAM is soldered

Sadly not. I'm sorry. But downgrading to Windows 7 should boost your speed considerably.

8GB is Max you can upgrade it to. I plan to sell my Twist for 700$ as I am moving to bigger screen. It is Core i7, 8GB, 500GB HDD, 24GB SSD. Let me know if you are interested.

No, It is a full windows PC running on an Intell processor. It simply has a hinge that allows it to be used in tablet mode. Go to Lenovo dot com and check out the specs, you can upgrade at time of purchase.

I mean it has more than my gateway which I got rid of and that one had ram added, so there is plenty here but I could not see why you could not add another bit, though you would have to call the mfg. to find out for sure. Since I just got it in the last year and it has more than I ever have had including the add on to the gateway the thought did not cross my mind. You should call Lenovo if you want more and make sure.

Hi. The laptop came in a closed box, totally new. It comes with a 4 Gb RAM memory from factory but you can upgrade it up to 12 Gb according to what I read from lenovo web site. About the warranty I'm not sure but I supose that I have 3 years from the moment I bougth it. I'm completely satisfied so far.

The RAM is upgradeable... though definitely not "easily". To get the back cover off you have to remove 12 tiny recessed screws that are strongly secured by Loctite. When i tried removing the screws using a jeweler's screwdriver set, one screw simply would not come out. I tried and tried, googled and tried again with several tools, but finally decided the screw would have to be extracted or drilled out, possibly damaging the case and voiding the warranty. So I gave up and sent the RAM back. Your mileage may vary. Other than that, I'm pretty happy with the laptop.

It's an sd card slot. You may want to download the manual from the Lenovo website if it wasn't included in your software. That should answer just about every question if not all of them about the operating system.

Looking at review videos and Dell's website itself, unfortunately it only has one RAM slot (but it is one of the few budget laptops you can upgrade without tearing it apart!).

No, that would be a waste of money. I contacted Lenovo, and according to them, it supports 8GB max.

Yes. But I do not recommend this laptop I had problems with it right after my purchase. I ended up getting a Lenovo thinkpad twist.

Hello Carlos, This laptop has 2 Memory slots and it can support RAM up to 8GB DDR3. Currently it has 1 slot occupied by a 4GB chip and the other slot is empty. Please let me know if you have any more questions! Sincerely, Rafael

I used the geekylives link to pop in the new RAM, but the system still says 1 GB. I looked at the device drivers to see if there was a way to tell the computer to look for the extra memory, but I still haven't gotten it to recognize the extra ram, although the computer is working fine.

The laptop has 2 ram slots, i just put in mine 2x4gb crucial memories and works like a charm, before i had only the 4 gb original hynix memory in it. Also you have 2 hdd drive bays which is a rare thing into a laptop especially at this price so you can easily put in a ssd drive to speed up the system. @Lemas I don't know what problems are you experiencing but I had 0 problems with it I used windows 8 and i just upgraded to 8.1 without any problems and i am using it for more than 6 months now and is my main work laptop so it runs almost 24h/day.@Rudy yeah having a big touch pad you can easily move the cursor around so i suggest you use a mouse and shutdown the touch using FN+F7 keys.

Eager to know if works! I too am thinking of expanding. If it does work, please share the Ram manufacturer and specs. Thanks.

No, memory is soldered to the motherboard and it does not have a memory slots.

No chance of swapping the ram, that is soldered to the board. You can if you are extremely motivated change the SSD (NGFF, M.2), good luck finding one though, they are as of April 2014 only available to manufacturers...

The tech spec is a typo. My thinkpad came with two ram slots and 1 4gb chip.
