Hi:

 

You can install a max of 2 x 8 GB of memory in your notebook.

 

4 GB + 8 GB will work fine, but will only run in single channel mode like it is now with one empty memory slot.

 

In order for the memory to run in dual channel mode, you have to install matching capacities in both slots (2 x 4 GB, 2 x 8 GB).

 

Below is the link to the service manual...
