Hello I've an Aspire E1 522 and I would expand RAM, but opening the back accessing HD there is no RAM slot for expansion, just a single slot putter under cover. Is it possible? I saw around many video and picture where are present also a free slot accessible for expansion. Is it possible that there are models with just 1 single RAM slot?

    When i check the specs i do see this unit has 2 slots for the RAM. One is embedded other one is given in the below picture. So you can put expand RAM on this unit.

    Its already been 3 years , so i dont think the store might help you. If you wish check with any local tech in your area to check whether there is another slot. If there no other slot for expanding RAM than i guess you have to work only with one RAM slot.

    I know seems unbelievable but the second unit where adding RAM is missed... There is no second DIMM slot. I bought the laptop on a certified computer store 3 years ago and just now looking to add extra hw, that's reason while just discovered. What I have to do?
