Hi, my laptop has got 8gb of RAM and I would like to take it to 16gb. I have to buy two RAM of 8gb. I already find, using the scansion program crucial, the compatible RAMs . The problem is that the kit of 8gbx2  RAM is not available. Is it the same if i buy 2 single RAM of  8GB instead of the kit? Do i risk that the two single RAM are incompatible? What should i do according to you?

They are the same device so no difference buying a single kit of 2 or two separately.

Does it have 1x8GB now ? If yes, you only need to buy ONE more 8GB

No, it has got two RAMs of 4gb (Samsung). So i need to change both of them to get to 16GB.  

This is the kit: https://www.amazon.it/Crucial-CT2K8G4SFRA32A-2x8GB-Memoria-Laptop/dp/B08C4WV6FT/ref=sr_1_1?__mk_it_I... (not available)

And this is the single RAM of 8GB: https://www.amazon.it/Crucial-CT2K8G4SFRA32A-2x8GB-Memoria-Laptop/dp/B08C4Z69LN/ref=sr_1_1?__mk_it_I... 

They are both compatible with my laptop according to the site Crucial. 

Thanks for the attention!
