Hi,

The notebook supports max 8GB of DDR3 PC3-10600 1333-MHz memory (2x4GB). So you can add a stick of 4GB for a total of 6GB.

Example of compatible RAM you can use

Remember that a 32-bit Windows installation will only be able to use max 4GB of RAM. To be able to use more RAM you will need to install Windows 64-bit.

 

Hope it helps,

David
