Additional Notes
- The internal architecture utilizes 4 GB of non-removable memory soldered directly to the motherboard, necessitating the use of the single expansion slot for any capacity increases.
- Upgrading requires an 8 GB module to reach the maximum supported capacity, as the hardware configuration prevents the utilization of 16 GB or 32 GB modules.
- Installing high-speed modules like 2400 MHz or 3200 MHz will result in an automatic downclock to match the 2133 MHz system bus limitation.
- Dual-channel performance benefits are restricted to the 4 GB soldered portion and a matching 4 GB portion of the expansion module, with any remaining memory operating in single-channel mode.
- The absence of secondary slots means memory replacement is a total swap of existing expansion hardware rather than an additive process.
- Latency timings will synchronize with the slower soldered memory bank to ensure system stability, regardless of the CAS latency rating on the new SO-DIMM.
- Physical installation involves removing the entire lower chassis casing because the design lacks a dedicated quick-access hatch for memory maintenance.
