I presume you mean RAM by memory...which you cannot add more. If you want to ad more storage, you could use a usb hub with an flash drive.

As far as I know you cannot add memory so it's limited, but I run 8.1 - a little slow at times ,could be other reasons. I bought mine a year ago, there may be better options now. Look around before buying.

Buddy, Yes it can be upgraded to a maximum of 16 gb as per the maximum specifications. However, practically I haven't tried. To best of my judgement I think it will support as HP must have done the bench marking or tests with maximum amount of RAM it can squeeze in.

Hello, This is what I found.... System Memory (RAM) Expandable To Nonexpandable Maximum amount of memory a computer can support (as opposed to the amount that comes preinstalled).

The two options available are 4GB and 8GB. I believe you can't upgrade to have more than 8GB max.

It depends upon how much memory you have installed when you buy it. I bought 8GB of RAM. I will probably never fill it up.

Yes it's expandable only up to 12 GB. It comes with two slots - a slot with 4 GB soldered into the motherboard and a slot with 2 GB that can be removed. I ended up removing that 2 GB RAM and putting in a Kingston 8GB 1600MHz DDR3L RAM ($72 on Amazon Warehouse Deals) chip in it. Works great. The original 2 GB chip was ADATA brand. As long as the speeds match, then there should be no problem mixing RAM of different capacity/size.

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.

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.

I do believe it is possible to upgrade to 16gb. And I'm not to sure about your first question? Could you word it differently?

You can upgrade past 8gb. I currently have 12gb installed. My guess is 16gb is the maximum with 8gb per slot.

Personally, for what I got this for, 4GB is way more than enough (it's not a gaming PC, though it can handle games on low-to-medium graphic settings). Apparently though, the RAM is soldered onboard. So while I'm not sure whether the motherboard can handle upgrades, it's probably quite a job if it's possible.

Ram is, assuming that the system can handle 16GB SODIMM memory, it comes with 2x8GB and these would have to be replaced with 16GB sticks. Similarly, storage can be expanded but only if you're OK with imaging and swapping a boot drive since there's only room for on internal drive. Access to both memory and storage requires you to remove the back cover of the screen which is straightforward. The system also comes with several USB3 ports, so adding external storage isn't a problem

no you can't, this mini have ram sold integrated, dont have slots SODIMM inside to expand memory as tipical laptops!!!!

It appears that you can. I can't remember if there are 2 slots or just 1 for the RAM, but on some how-to videos I found on similar x51 models, you can upgrade to 16 gb.

As far as you can with two slots of laptop RAM. I was able to put 8GB in there and it improved performance a lot.
