Tips for buying hardware?
#22
Lately I thought that I could use some extra RAM and it came out it is feasible with the laptop I have to expand with a built-in module. Even though few people would probably choose to upgrade their laptop, though if someone is fairly satisfied with what they have and does not plan to switch an entire set anytime soon, upgrading the RAM could be an option to gain some speed. Which is why, when buying a laptop, it is good to check on how much RAM slots does it have, as well as how much total RAM capacity can it support.

I saw the SSD is also upgradable, but this could mean having to replace the default module, instead of adding to it, which is rather unprofitable if everything works as promised.

EDIT:

Saw this movie, quite useful. Someone in the comment section points out the first thing to do after accessing the bowels is to disconnect the battery. The guy in the video mentions that dual channel RAM could enhance certain behaviours of the processor, even if it is 2*4GB instead of 1*8GB. If to look forward to upgrade, though, 1*8GB is a better option, since 2*4GB may fit for a complete replacement, depending on expectations.

PS. But actually, it should be possible to buy a more moderate laptop next time and simply boost it with the older RAM, if that makes it for the better.

If done too early, it could bust your warranty though, in case it applies.
