Yeah, I was thinking the same thing, but if you look at the product details it tells you 8 gigs ram, 512gig hd.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The 512GB is a solid state drive and is accessed the same way a traditional hard drive. The difference is that solid state drives use flash memory, which can hold a charge while the system is off versus the DRM chips found in the 8GB of memory. The memory chips in the solid state drive are cheaper and slower. Even were they the same the distance between where the memory is on the motherboard and how it is accessed is important to the speed. There are a limited amount of memory, depending upon how much each chip holds, that can be positioned close enough to the CPU to provide acceptable performance.
