I used it on my netbook 32bit 1gb ram and it worked no problem however be warned the install takes a loooong time. Also I'd suggest getting a 4gb stick while your at it since you cannot have more than 4 gb with this upgrade. the difference for me was day and night

You can add RAM however two of the slots are under the keyboard, after hours of chat and phone calls with Asus I still don't know how to install the RAM.

I upgraded to 8GB of memory (2x4G, DDR3 SO-DIMM) like this one Crucial 8GB Kit (4GBx2) DDR3 1600 MT/s (PC3 - 12800) CL11 SODIMM Notebook Memory Modules CT2KIT51264BF160B / CT2CP51264BF160B The system feels much snapper when many pages are open at the same time.It is easy to upgrade RAM, just remove the four rubber feet and the screws underneath them. Theoretically, the CPU supports 16GB, not sure if the mother board supports that much of memory. If someone has 16GB of memory at hand, please try and report back. The recognized memory size can be found in chrome://system (type it in the url bar).

Thanks for the response...the first 2GB i received from Amazon actually seemed to slow DOWN my netbook...esp noticeable after i replaced it with the 1GB to see if the hanging shutdown would go away (which it did)...so my question to you is...do you notice ANY enhanced performance from the 800 mHz 2GB install?

I am not sure but I would call an IT tech and ask. I have a smaller HP net book and memory was added to it.

I've updated my RAM and it was incredibly easy; most online places allow you to look up what memory you will need. I went from the standard 4GB to 10GB (I bought one 8GB stick). There are small screws on the bottom of the laptop (don't lose them!) and then you click out the old memory stick and pop in the new one.I found several videos online that were helpful also!

Disappointed that it has only 4gb memory capability, hope that its a miss print can anybody confirm that? Don't know what to do now, the price of ram always goes down and the need for it always seems to increase.

The usual answer is netbooks are very picky about the memory you use for an upgrade. Try to match the make, speed for the upgrade (might have to use real Dell or maybe Kingston). Here's Dell PN: Product Description Dell memory - 2 GB - SO DIMM 204-pin - DDR3 Storage Capacity 2 GB Upgrade Type System specific OEM Manufacturer Equivalent Part Number DELL A5622175 Technology DDR3 SDRAM Form Factor SO DIMM 204-pin Memory Speed 1333 MHz ( PC3-10600 ) Data Integrity Check Non-ECC

I bought NB505-N508BL on June 16th from Amazon. I am typing this message from that computer. It has DDR3 memory. I bought 2 GB DDR3 memory for around $21 from Amazon and replaced the 1 GB memory which came with the computer. Also, I wiped out the computer clean and installed Windows 7 Professional. Windows 7 Basic was clunky and hard to use at least that is what I felt.

Yes, we did add extra ram...note the total memory cannot exceed 4megs . Hope this helps!

anyone who says that a 2GB memory won't speed up your netbook don't know what their talking about. use the PC2-6400 800MHz memory. If you don't mind spending the extra 43 bucks then get it, you'll be happy you did.

Karen, you cannot add memory. You buy it as it is with 32 GB. Upgrade not possible, sorry.

I have been quite happy with my ASUS 1015PED Netbook that I actually never ended up purchasing this memory upgrade. I did shop around a little more and found that this one still is the most recemended. It is a great deal as well, which is why it is usually out of stock.I would recomend this one and I may still get this one. However for right now, I upgraded my ASUS netbook to Windows 7 Professional and it runs great. No need for more memory right now.Sorry I can't be of more help.

IMHO, a safe and easy way to upgrade the RAM is to follow the approach of using a credit card in conjunction with a Philip's screwdriver, as in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xKSpW3q0GY Be aware that upgrading the RAM pretty much voids your warranty. That said, it was actually quite simple and I upgraded to 1.5GB. Tips: 1. Make sure there is plenty of light, and go slow and deliberate. You don't want to lose any screws inside the AA1. 2. Use two credit-cards instead of one when working on the keyboard. Use one credit card to push the tabs and with the other hand use a second credit card to get underneath the keyboard to push it up. (NOTE: DO NOT force anything!) 3. It is NOT necessary to disconnect the LCD display connector. You can get to the RAM socket underneath the motherboard after unscrewing the LAN card, motherboard and daughterboard.

type into taskbar the following http://www.kingston.com/us/memory/search/Default.aspx?DeviceType=7&Mfr;=GIG&Line;=GA-M68MT-S2P&Model;=67180&Description;=Kingston_ValueRam_Memory_for_GIG_GA-M68MT-S2P_Gigabyte_-_GA-M68MT-S2P_Motherboard. THIS is for your motherboard specs. If that does not work go to Kingston.com under hyperblue motherboard search and type in your model #. HOPE THIS HELPS, IT IS THE BEST FOR THE PRICE MEMORY I HAVE NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS WITH IT good luck

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.
