    Yes...make sure it's notebook RAM as well. They're shorter than desktop ram sticks. I'd also stick with one of the quaity brands (G.Skill, Crucial, Corsair, Patriot, etc).

    May I ask, how much RAM came with your computer?

    Most of the time, these laptops come with both memory slots filled. So if you're unaware, you'll lose a little bit of memory by having to swap out one of them. Just keep that in mind.
