    I spoke to Asus support (very little help!) and they said "We don't have any info on that model!"" REALLY!!!!??? Anyway ... I opened the case and there is a slot for additional memory but NO information re type, speed, etc. so I don't want to order until I am sure of which to buy. Also want to upgrade to SSD but again concerned about compatibility, BIOS says memory = 4GB with no other information. Anyone who has upgraded one of these units have any additional info? Any help will be greatly appreciated!!!

    Since the memory stick you reccomend is an 8GB I am wondering if that will work since it does not match the 4GB that is installed. Comment?

    Hi Jfenley,

    I look for a reference from asus website itself I looked for the model of your laptop if you want you may try to find it there also. The memory of gigabyte of the laptop will not be a problem. As long as the socket will support it and your laptop supports up to 16 gbs of ram it will not be a problem. You may double check it :)
