I upgraded this laptop to 8g DDR3 from Crucial. I didn't need any software and the computer recognizes it.

I am also looking for the memory upgrade. If someone who has done this could post details, I would be eternally grateful! Not a member of the geek sqad so I am not sure how to go about it - is there a specific type to buy and how do you instal it?

It is NOT dual channel. The Manual actually specifies that it has channel A and B. Therefore it is not dual channel, as i have purchased a 16gb kit and it is not running dual channel. Hp envy m6, WD black 1tb, 16 gigs gskill 1600, custom In-house Lexan hinges (hp envy line is notorious for having crappy hinges and having screens break off. BE AWARE!!)

Yes, there are two slots that support 8GB of 1600MHz memory per slot, up to 16GB maximum. If you require support on how to upgrade the memory I would recommend you visit our Acer Community website (community.acer.com). You can join discussions with product specialists and members just like you who are ready to guide you through the process of finding solutions to your issues.

I do not know. Go to cnet.com and search for your laptop. It will give you the full specs for it. Look for maximum memory supported (mine was 16 gb) and how many total slots (mine is two). So I bought two. Go to Youtube.com and again search for your laptop plus "memory upgrade" (without the quotes). You should be able to find instructions on how to do the upgrade.

Eager to know if works! I too am thinking of expanding. If it does work, please share the Ram manufacturer and specs. Thanks.

I have finally been able to install the 2GB RAM with my ASUS 1000HE turning on but I have the same problem with the system not showing the added RAM.Nothing happens when I pressF2 as you did.Can someone please advise me? I'd really be grateful.

Yes, I just did that with 5x of them and it works perfectly. They come with a single 4gb module and adding a second one improves the memory throughput as well because it then goes in dual channel mode. Just be sure to install it in the same color slot as the one that's already in there and you'll be all set. Hope that helps!

I bought cossair dominator 16 GB 1833 MHz and love it. How ever the I heard g skill is good too. Most importantly refer to mb ram compatibility chart from Asus web site. Sorry I don't know to well about Kingston. Happy ram hunting!

I was wondering the same thing . . . and can you just add a 1GB chip in that additional slot?? We have one arriving today -- so I'll check out the documentation.

Hello Carlos, This laptop has 2 Memory slots and it can support RAM up to 8GB DDR3. Currently it has 1 slot occupied by a 4GB chip and the other slot is empty. Please let me know if you have any more questions! Sincerely, Rafael

That's a good question and a feature that would be nice to have since I'm considering buying a second HD Pro. I checked the Data Sheet Specs, HD Pro Features video, and SmartCam website (see links below). Unless I missed it, doesn't appear to be something that can be done at this time, too bad. Maybe in the future, Samsung will update its SmartCam website to enable this capability. But for now, viewing two or more cameras simultaneously doesn't appear to be possible.

Someone else already posted a link to this board's manual, and your question is answered there: "Four 240-pin Double Data Rate 2 (DDR2) SDRAM Dual Inline Memory Module" single or dual channel. Up to 8GB supported.

its seems it does support, many times come with the minimun ram installed. and with this addittion you could see much gain in performance. i hope youre answer its cleared. bye

if your laptop has 2 slots for RAM, then yes, yes you can. If it only has 1 RAM slot, then im sorry to say that you cannot dual-channel. if ur asking if there will be compatibility issues, then there should be no compatibility issues. hope this helps.

I understand (from reading about DDR2 ram earlier since I'm looking at an upgrade to 2GB) that DDR2 is normally rated at double the speed of the individual chips/modules, since it uses two channels to transmit data from point A to point B. I believe I saw this in a info sheet (PDF) on Kingston's web site. I agree, it's confusing.

Looking at review videos and Dell's website itself, unfortunately it only has one RAM slot (but it is one of the few budget laptops you can upgrade without tearing it apart!).
