FAQ about Lenovo IdeaPad S145-14API RAM
How many RAM slots does the Lenovo S145-14API have?
Just one slot that you can access. The laptop has some memory soldered to the motherboard that you can't touch, plus this single upgradeable slot.
What's the maximum RAM I can install in this laptop?
You can put up to 16GB in the user-accessible slot. Combined with whatever's soldered on the board, the system maxes out at 20GB total.
What type of memory does this laptop use?
DDR4 SODIMM - that's the smaller laptop-sized memory stick, not the full-size desktop kind.
What speed RAM should I buy?
Get 2666MHz DDR4 (also labeled as PC4-21300). The system might accept faster RAM but it'll just run at 2666MHz anyway, so no point spending extra.
Can I mix different RAM speeds or brands?
Since you only have one upgradeable slot, you're not really mixing - you're just adding to whatever's soldered. Any DDR4 SODIMM at 2666MHz should work fine regardless of brand.
How much soldered RAM comes with this laptop?
Depends on your model - could be 4GB or 8GB soldered. If max is 20GB and you can add up to 16GB, then there's 4GB soldered. Check your current total to figure out what you've got.
