This particular 8Gb module works for sure… I used the crucial ram tool to find out which one I needed (just google it!). I purchased a Samsung 1.35v DDR3 1600 SO-DIMM module along with an 840 EVO 500Gb SSD which I’ll install when I get the chance. You have to get low voltage ram – otherwise it won’t work. Adding a higher voltage 8 GB in this one won’t work, as some of our readers reported.Īndrew M’s comment (Thanks!): “ Hi Guys, I just purchased an 8Gb SODIMM and installed it under the silver cover – thanks for the tip as I couldn’t find where the alleged spare slot was! I can confirm that the 8Gb module I used works fine and Windows 8 reports my machine as having 12gb of RAM. However, you need to use a low-voltage 1.35V DDR3 DIMM. Recent updates – see Andrew M’s comment below – indicate that an 8 GB module can go in this slot, for a total of 12 GB. This post explains exactly what you need to do in order to upgrade the RAM on the V551. There are 4 GB of RAM soldered on the motherboard, and an extra DIMM, hidden behind the aluminum-foil cover next to the CPU (third picture below), so getting to it could be a bit complicated, but not impossible if you know what you’re doing. You’ll see how the hardware looks in the pics below. Still, with a proper screwdriver, you can remove the 10 or so screws holding the entire plastic back in place and have a peek at the internals. The battery is encased and the components are not that easily accessible.

Speaking of that, there are barely any cuts down here, except for a small cooling grill on the side and the speakers placed towards the front.
