ASUS U30SD-XA1 RAM Replacement

Giriş

RAM, or random access memory, is short-term storage for your ASUS U30SD-XA1. RAM is used by your processor for immediate use as-needed, unlike long-term files written to a hard disk drive. If your computer has slowed considerably or you’re looking for a boost, replacing/upgrading the RAM is a fairly simple and inexpensive first step. The ASUS U30SD-XA1 laptop comes standard with 8GB of RAM and can be upgraded to a maximum of 16GB with its two (DDR3) slots.
