May kindly advice for RAM upgrade from 8 GB to 16 GB.

What needs to be done for doubling  / upgrading my DDR4 / 8GB / 2133 Mhz /  single Slot RAM?

Can the Memory Capacity be doubled?

What are the features to be looked for in finding a best compatible RAM to my notebook. (i have 1 slot empty)

Thanks

Hi,

Your notebook supports max 16GB of DDR4 2400MHz RAM (2x8GB)

You can add another 8GB module in the empty slot. Crucial is usually a good choice and they guarantee their upgrades:

On page 35 of service manual you can see the steps to install the RAM.

You should also upgrade to a SATA3 SSD for a great improvement in everyday performance.

 

Hope it helps,

David
