Notebook : Lenovo Ideapad S500 [P/N : 500-14Isk] (Disassembly)
For this item model the Lenovo IdeaPad S500 is kinda equally good similar the rest, where you lot take to take the entire bottom comprehend but for RAM or HDD upgrade. Luckily it was relatively tardily (so to speak) to locate the DIMM slot(s).
But sadly in that place is alone 1 DIMM slot available hence you lot tin alone upgrade to a higher capacity RAM instead of adding more.
As I'm removing the bottom cover, I institute out that there's are no hidden screws beneath those prophylactic pads. Well... lucky me. :D
Immediately I'm greeted yesteryear the mainboard, HDD as well as battery..... but wait, where is the RAM's slot(s) ? Not but about other type that take to take the mainboard but to flip over to disclose the it ?
Of course of written report no, its but been covered upward yesteryear the aluminium shielding (as demonstrate below).
After removing the shielding, straightaway you lot tin meet the DIMM slot is straightaway visible.
Sadly equally I've mentioned earlier, in that place is alone a unmarried DIMM slot available. So you lot tin alone select to supervene upon the existing RAM amongst higher capacity. Upon checking amongst Kingston website, alone the next model is available :-
1) Kingston 8GB DDR3 1600Mhz [P/N : KCP3L16SD8/8]
There is equally good a 4GB model, but the existing unit of measurement is already at 4GB capacity hence I never bother to cheque it out since higher capacity of 8GB is available.
This equally good shows that the maximum capacity available for this notebook is max out at 8GB, there's no agency you lot tin upgrade to 16GB (unless you lot are able to source it as well as its kinda expensive hither inwards Malaysia for that capacity). Even though you lot are able to source similar specifications, but there's no guaranteed it volition hold upward stable equally its untested.
I notwithstanding preferred parts that are fully tested as well as proven to works, anyway its upward your choice.
!!! HAPPY COMPUTING !!!
