    Hai,

    i want to add more memory to my new laptop. Its the ASUS K93SM.
    Accoridng to the asus website, this laptop should have 4 slots. But I can find only 2. Where are the other 2 slots, so I can add more memory? If there are 4 slots...i do have my doubts now.

    This laptop has been bought in the netherlands.

    I apologize for my bad english.

    from one side, it has 4 slots, just like a k93sv:

    RAM slots on Asus X93SV / K93SV 18,4″ “portable” laptop « Lars Werner

    please read carefully "warranty note" at the end of article!

    from other side, my k93sm (with i5-2450m) does not boot (post does not start) if some "so-dimm" is installed at 1st or 3rd slots (slots under keyboard). this problem was mentioned by some people at discussion of article, e.g. RAM slots on Asus X93SV / K93SV 18,4″ “portable” laptop « Lars Werner

    therefore, i can install 8gb memory (2x4gb so-dimm at 2nd and 4th slots), but can not expand up to 16gb
