If you upgrade the ram does it void the square trade warranty?

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

Update (since I previously said it WAS expandable): When I talked to a rep a couple of weeks ago, I was assured that the RAM was upgradeable, but it might have to go to one of their service centers. Just called in, and the sales rep said 2 gb was the max (BUT it was obvious she was just reading the same site info that I already had in front of me). Frustrating.

RAM is not upgradeable and the unit has a 3 year warranty as per the manufacturer's website... http://www.synology.com/en-us/products/spec/RS814

Yes but you might lose warranty and if the OS installed is not 64 bit, you wont be able to see the difference after 4gb of RAM

I see that same thing in my task manager. I'm not sure, I do know for sure that this motherboard has custom soldered on 4gb of RAM in dual channel configuration and zero sodimm slots period. So, you can not upgrade. It is likely the processor and chipset are able to support another slot, if there were one. Asus has clearly really customized this machine to cram everything in here.

Brandon,Yes, to both of your questions. Please note that the proper installation of any component that does not damage the computer will *not* void the warranty on the system.

You have to check in your system preferences for the type of ram that your model supports

Warning **** if you add or replace ram you automatically void your warranty. Also good luck getting aple service to do anything for you ever.

I know the Depot warranty is not affected by memory upgrades. Memory is a user-serviceable upgrade. I've contacted Lenovo for keyboard and hard drive replacements and there has never been an issue (or even a question about) memory upgrades affecting warranty status. The T430 and earlier series' are rock solid, business-class machines.

It is very easy to upgrade ram. I just did it and did not even look at a guide.Note that there is only one SO_DIMM slot, so you cannot buy a 1 gb stick and add on. I swapped out the 1 gb stick mine came with, with onee of two 2 gb sticks on my thinkpad. better value all round.also, i just read online that asus changed their policy of treating ram upgrade as voiding warranty. not sure though.

You can upgrade the Ram and SSD without voiding the warranty. I have talked directly to technical support at MSI, but only those 2 things can be upgraded.

This is another case of Amazon supporting fraudulent claims by sellers. Apple does not sell RAM modules to the public. The claim that this is an Apple product is false. That said, I've upgraded many Apple computers with third party RAM and not had a problem. The question I have is "If the seller is willing to fool you about who he is, is he also willing to fool you about the RAM meeting Apple's specifications?" Fool me once, fool me twice, and all that. At leat buy from someone who admits their real name, like Kingston, PNY or Corsair.

You can upgrade the GPU/ram/hard drives without voiding warranties. I may be wrong, but, I do not think you can upgrade the cpu at all being as it is attached to the mobo. I don't know about the extended warranty.

Honestly I can't tell you, because I haven't read the warranty with square trade that concerns that. Try checking the square trade website to see if you can have that answer solved. They typically handle that warranty if you do purchase it through them (*Which would be ideal, and what I did). Best of luck.

Sadly no it isnt (soldered on to the main board). Tinkering with the RAM would invalidate the warranty as Acer dont regard it as a "user serviceable part"

I do not believe the RAM can be upgraded. Not sure about any other hardware.

No. The RAM is soldered to the motherboard, so expansion is not a realistic option.
