I recently bought the laptop, It came with 2GB DDR3L SDRAM, i wanted to upgrade to total 4GB & accordingly bought another 2GB SO-DIMM. However, on opening the memory compartment, i was shocked to see that there is no Socket to hold the second SODIMM.

My questions:

-why isn't the second connector there?
-How do i upgrade my total RAM now?

-In case i get the second socket soldered from some professional, will this work?

I mean, is there any chance of some other discrete component not being soldered?

-Can someone provide me the part number of the socket to be ordered?

Thanks.

green,

So that I can provide a more specific explanation for your product, please provide your specific model; E1-510-XXXX, or the first 10-digits of your serial number so I can see how it was configured from factory. I do know that some of our models do not ship with more than one memory slot and can only be upgraded using the single slot provided.

Dear Acer-Ryan,

Thanks for your efforts to help me.

It does look like this system is only expandable using the single slot. So to get more RAM you will have to buy a larger single Dimm module.

Thanks for your efforts.

I bought a 4GB DDR3 12800. After installation the computer does not want to start?

When i place the original Kingston 2GB DRR3 it starts..? any idea?

Did you buy DDR3L ??

The L is for low voltage or 1.35V. I tried to upgrade with a regular DDR3 stick that runs at 1.5V and it wouldn't work.
