It's time to upgrade this old laptop to get a little more life out of it..

Looking to throw some new ram in there. But can't find any information on which fits, how many sticks etc.. It shows there being 8gb capable. but it comes with 4gb (im guessing 2x2gb?)
If someone could point me in the right direction for some decent ram so i can max out the 8GB..that'd be awesome!

It says in the spec list the laptop has two So dimm memory slots.
Each slot can be filled with a memory stick density of 4Gb.

The max total the laptop can take is 8Gb of memory.
Take one of the old sticks out of the laptop and simply read what speed, and type of memory stick it is.
DDR2 or DDR3 its voltage, the speed rating will be on a lable on each memory stick.

Then just buy two new ones at 4Gb x 2
Flog the old ones on ebay to make a bit of money back :D.
