  • I'm trying to find out if my Aspire E15 (E5-521G-632L) has two memory slots so I could upgrade my memory by just adding 2MB so it'll be 6MB RAM after. I've seen 1 of 2 slots used in Task ManagerPerformanceMemory but I heard that's not accurate as most are just virtual memory slot and not actual physical slot in the laptop.
  • Here is the quick guide to identify your ram, the number of slots and how much it will cost. We are assuming you have downloaded CPU-Z from their website. The trick with CPU-Z is not to look in the Memory tab but use the SPD tab. You can see how many RAM slots your computer has by using the 'Slot 1' drop down list.

Tips for a compatible upgrade
Match new RAM to your existing ram speed. You do not get a speed increase mixing fast and slow ram, it always defaults to the slowest speed. There is a chance the new RAM will not be compatible. So there is no upside, and all downside - not a good bet.
Use the computer model information to search Upgradeable for your model. We do not charge more for brand specific RAM. Do not assume you can use 8GB or 16GB modules by default. Some models are limited to the amount of RAM it can use. If you are unsure internet search your model with 'max ram'. If your computer has 2 slots and the maximum RAM is 16GB then the biggest module you can use is 8GB. However if the maximum ram is 8GB then the largest module you can use is 4GB. This is number one reason for incompatible RAM.
