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.

The system memory is soldered to the logic board. It is not user upgrade able. The solid state drive is interchangeable/upgradeable.

Not sure if the seller can upgrade it for you but you could upgrade it yourself. The standard 4GB occupies one memory slot. The second memory slot is open so you can easily add another 4GB module for 8GB total.

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.

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.

better answer after looking at the screw schematic, there's no easy way to upgrade the memory or storage. That's because the battery is hidden away inside the case, and there's no access panel for removing parts for repair or upgrade.

I am not sure, but if you go to crucial.com, there is a system scanner that will check it out for you and let you which memory you can use on your computer. That is the way I got mine

You can add more memory, but there are only 2 hard drive slots. You'll just be able to upgrade to higher capacity hard drives, but can't add more.

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/

If you bought 8GB of RAM, you are in good shape in terms of working memory that is active at one time. You can upgrade if you didn't get 8 gb. As to storage memory, the 256 solid state hard drive or the 500gb or larger drives should be ample. If not, external storage is probably the best way to upgrade.

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.

A typical ddr3 memory from say Kingston or Corsair or any other good manufacturer will do. I used the Corsair Vengenace 8 Gigs.

Go to Crucial's website, and download the Crucial Scanner, run it, and it will tell you all the memory that will work in your system.

Please go to youtube, type in your laptop brand and model and search for memory installation. It is a simple process depending on the brand and model. Otherwise get a technician to install it for you.

no 1gb sticks will not increase your ram you would have to have 2- 2gb sticks (ram) to increase to 4gb I think you only have 2 ram slots so that is the only way to increase ram.
