How to replace a laptop RAM

How to replace a laptop RAM

First of all, not all laptops have this type of access to the RAM slots and if yours does not you will probably need an authorized laptop repair technician to do it for you.
Before you start removing the panels to get access to the RAM slots, read the manual. If your laptop didn’t come with a manual or you cannot find it, your laptop manufacturers’ website should have one available for download in PDF format.

The manual should specify the maximum memory capacity of the laptop and you can also see how much RAM is currently installed by going to the Windows System Information (as mentioned in the last picture in this guide).

Once you determine that your laptop will be able to handle a memory upgrade and you have purchased the parts, you are ready to start.

Turn off the computer and remove all cords from the system AND the battery. The battery can still hold charge which can surge your hardware.
