What's the maximum RAM I can install?
You can go up to 16GB total - that's 8GB per slot maximum.
What type of RAM do I need to buy?
You need DDR3 SODIMM modules. Make sure it's DDR3, not DDR3L or DDR4 - they won't work.
What speed RAM should I get?
1600MHz (also labeled as PC3-12800) is the recommended speed. Faster RAM will work but will just run at 1600MHz anyway.

It needs to be SODIMM form factor - the smaller laptop memory sticks. Desktop RAM (DIMM) is too big and won't fit.
Do I need to match the existing RAM exactly?
Not necessarily, but try to match the speed (1600MHz). Different brands usually work fine together as long as the specs match.
