Product Manuals

Q: Can the ram be upgraded?

A: Yes, one of the reasons I bought it. You can upgrade the 8 GB up to 16 GB easily. The back slides out to allow you to easily upgrade and replace the battery. Much better than having to upgrade the entire laptop.

Q: Is the keyboard backlit? Optional?

A: No, the keyboard does not backlit.

Q: what is the process speed for this model?

A: The base processor speed is 1.8 gigahertz.

Q: Can I upgrade the storage?

A: If you are adept at taking laptops apart, possibly. This laptop does not have a hard drive access panel like all laptops used to. It would have to be completely taken apart. If you really want this particular laptop, and need more storage, I would recommend purchasing an external hard drive for your storage needs. Otherwise I would recommend looking at a device that comes with more internal storage.

Q: On the asus site it says there's a DVD/CD drive included however here it says there is none. Is there an actual optical drive in this laptop? Should be on the right side.

A: The ASUS Support site shows it is an option. The laptop sold at BestBuy doesn't come with a DVD/CC drive, and was not advertised as having one.

Q: What version of windows does thia come with? Is it extra for windows 10 Pro?

A: The P2540UB-XB71 should come with Windows 10 Professional (64bit).
