can you upgrade the ram on the rasberry pi

You probably can, but it would be an additional board and would probably require software written to handle it. I know this sounds iffy, but I've been running ArchLinux on the rasp-pi and as long as you use a large enough SD-ram "ram-disk" there doesn't seem to be any problem doing what you need to do. Be sure to format it large enough for your purpose.

No, but you can expand the "disk" memory by getting a larger SD card. Also, you can add an external, USB hard drive.

nope it is built into board, mine didn't even work when I received it so may as well have burned about 100 bucks cause after buying all the items for it and it didn't work period and I have been rebuilding and working on computers for over 14 years

Nope, its much like a smartphone motherboard with a few extra input and output ports. Nothing upgradeable other than the SD card which acts as the hard drive more or less. I highly doubt you would need note ram than 512mb for what it runs to be honest, its only capable of light and limited tasks, which is why most buy it to experiment with. A modern smartphone is actually way more powerful than the pi.

You can upgrade past 8gb. I currently have 12gb installed. My guess is 16gb is the maximum with 8gb per slot.

I would have to look but i think you can upgrade to 32 gigs of ram, i believe there is three more open bays.

Yes I believe you can add more ram to it. I don't even use this computer anymore so I am unsure of what size ram it has but I have added ram to other computers before.

Sorry, but the memory in this machine is not upgradable. If you need 16GB, it must be ordered at the time of purchase. The RAM is surface mounted to the system board.

no 1gb sticks will not increase your ram you would have to have 2- 2gb sticks (ram) to increase to 4gb I think you only have 2 ram slots so that is the only way to increase ram.

No, the RAM is soldered to the logic board in all of those models. You would have to upgrade the whole logic board.

Yes, this is possible: you can easily upgrade the HDD and increase the RAM in this computer

just purchase the Ram elsewhere and do it yourself. It's very easy to install. Amazon only sells the pre-configured units from apple.

You can use 8Gb modules, there's only 2 DIMMS. I'm using Corsair DDR 3 16GB kit of 2 8Gb1600Mhz

I can't actually answer your question (yet, going to install soon) however since the upgrade to 2gb (via two 1gb chips) is only around $30 here on amazon it seems silly not to upgrade.. also waiting on my memory so I'll post back with my experiences :)

Probably not. To replace your RAM you need to match it EXACTLY. To upgrade it you need to match the speed. Type the numbers on your RAM into Google and see the exact type of RAM you have. Then you can order it in any size that will work in your system. Or type your computer model number along with RAM into Google and it will probably take you to a RAM advisor site. YOu can come back to Amazon and order what you need once you know EXACTLY what you need.

It appears that you can. I can't remember if there are 2 slots or just 1 for the RAM, but on some how-to videos I found on similar x51 models, you can upgrade to 16 gb.

I haven't done it yet but see no reason that wouldn't allow you to. I plan to add more ram to the one I own. As for upgrading the OS that shouldn't be any issue either.

Yes the ram can be changed. Th graphics can be changed but the card would take an expansion slot unless you purchase the pc without the integrated video card.

I believe that you can upgrade the memory up to 16GB. My model came preinstalled with 6GB.

RAM on this unit is soldered to the motherboard. No user upgrade possible. But you could upgrade the drive (SSD).
