Hi:

Below is the link to the Crucial memory report for your model.

2 x 8 GB is supported and the report provides the memory specs.

Below is the link to the service manual where you can find the memory upgrade and removal and replacement procedure...

Thank you! For Quick response.

Can I go ahead and install 1*8GB along with existing 1*4GB of model DDR3L(Micron Technology) format SO-DIMM and 933Mhz frequency.

You're very welcome.

You can install an 8 GB memory module along with the 4 GB one but you don't want to leave it that way.

When you have an empty slot or install memory in mismatched capacities, the memory runs in the lower performing single data rate (SDR) mode.

When you install memory in matched capacities (2 x 8 GB, 2 x 16 GB), the memory runs in the higher performing dual data rate (DDR) mode.
