There is ONE SODIMM slot. The laptop comes with 4GB of RAM built-in to the motherboard and the SODIMM slot empty. You can add 16GB more via a RAM DIMM to the expansion slot for a maximum of 20GB (4+16). The integrated RAM and the RAM slot are both DDR4. The built-in RAM is DDR4-19200. It is preferred that you get a SODIMM of the same speed (19200). The process of getting to the RAM slot is a bit complicated - first you have to remove ALL screws from the bottom of the unit. Second, you have to remove the DVD drive. Third, you have to remove the two screws exposed from removing the DVD drive. Finally, you need to use a plastic shiv to pop up the keyboard exposing the final screw (not exactly an easy task...I used a used Gift Card to pop it out). Remove this screw and the bottom of the computer will come off. Insert the RAM, and put all the screws back.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The maximum RAM for this system is 8GB. There is only one slot.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Not Lenovo, but I can answer this from experience. There are not slots available. You can't open the back at all to upgrade. Most major consumer laptop manufacturers (Lenovo, Dell, HP, etc.) have now designed their lower end systems without access to the internals. If, by chance, there is a slot available, you would have to undo multiple screws, crack open the case, and disassemble many of the internals before even getting access to where the memory is located.
