    Hello everybody, my 1 year warranty passed recently and I'm pretty happy with the M1530...so happy with it that I figure I might as well up the ram on it.

    Now the unit has 4gb installed and I'm looking at maxing it out with 8gb.


    I've searched high and low and can only find ram for about $160.00 for 4gb stick.


    Does anybody know of a good site where I can buy 8GB for the laptop for a good fair price?
