Ed S. The unit ships with 2 memory slots. One contains 8GB of memory and the other is empty. While the motherboard is capable of being upgraded to 32GB of memory per manufacturer spec, until 16GB sticks are widely available, the most likely effective maximum is 16GB.

It comes with 2GB, since there is only one memory slot it may be upgraded by replacing the original RAM with a 4GB module and it may be possible to use a 8GB instead.

No. The memory is fixed on the motherboard and is not something that you can upgrade. 4GB RAM is all that it has and will ever have.

Yes it is expandable to 32 GB of RAM, but make sure you get the exact same type and speed of memory that is already in it, which in mine is DDR3 1600 MHz (PC3-12800)

Memory can be upgraded in increments of four or eight gig chips of RAM. I replaced the two four gig chips with four eight gig chips maxing it out with thirty two. Machine has four memory chip slots.

Yes, you can upgrade the RAM, but only to 8 G. Also, it only has room for one chip and make sure you get the right one. As far as changing out the HD drive, I believe you can, but I am not sure which one you could use. Maybe when you change the RAM you can check what is possible with the drive since you have to pull the whole bottom off to access the memory. I've been using the laptop as is and it works well for all I do. I woul recommend using the laptop for awhile before you change anything. Maybe it will work just fine "as is" for you?

Yes, Ram can be upgraded to 4GB via standard SODIMM modules. 8GB is a possibility but needs to be confirmed but not much point going to 8gb at this stage.

32GB is the max. But I haven't open up the cpu because of warranty. It is a pretty small cpu, if there is any slot open at all, would be two. Due to latecy may vary between different DDR'S, I would replace instead of adding.

If you want to upgrade from 4GB of Ram to 8GB of Ram make sure you purchase one DDR3L memory stick. If you do not get the chip with L at end of DDR3 it won't work. You only need one chip to upgrade, that's what I did. I now have 8GB of RAM/

Go to "system" and it will show the amount of RAM Memory. Mine came with 8gb.

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

This model can support up to 16GB. There are two RAM slots, one is occupied by 1x8GB leaving a second one open for upgrade.

Yes you can upgrade the memory. If I were to upgrade mine I would use Corsair CMSO8GX3M2A1333C9 or CMSO4GX3M1A1333C9. The Acer Aspire V5 471P has 2 slots and a max total memory of 8GB.

0 RAM soldered to the motherboard. 4GB chip in the only slot. You can replace it with 8GB. This is as high as this model goes.

Shouldn't be a problem, just purchase another 8gb stick. Also agree with the other answer an ssd is a much better way to upgrade this notebook. I talk about this in my review. About the other answer though, he/she indicates two ram slots are in use. At least in mine it came with one 8gb stick instead of two 4gb sticks.

Yup, you just have to buy the two 8GB ram sticks and replace the two 4GB ram sticks currently in the computer. However, there are only 2 RAM slots, so you wont be able to have four 4GB sticks, but instead 2 8GB RAM sticks

Since it is a 64 bit system, you can upgrade the ram up to 32gigs but the most available in one RAM card is 8 gigs so 16 gigs is pretty much the max.
