Hello there, 

 

My current laptop has 4GB RAM.  I need 8GB.  

Serial:[Personal Information Removed]

Product: P1A95UA#ABA

 

When I look in the service manual I get this message ...... 
"Two non-customer-accessible/upgradable memory module slots"

But shows that it supports up to 8GB of system RAM in different configurations.

 

Can I do a downloadable upgrade for RAM???

 

PLEASE HELP.  I need 8GB for grad school and don't want to purchase a new computer.

It has 4GB DDR3 SDRAM (1 DIMM), DDR3 RAM is a bit hard to find now, you can upgrade to

 

   (a)  8GB using the following compatible RAM
