FAQ about Lenovo Thinkpad Edge E325 RAM

How much RAM can I put in my Lenovo Edge E325?

Maximum is 8GB total. You've got 2 slots to work with, so that's 4GB per slot max.

What type of memory do I need for the E325?

DDR3 SODIMM - the smaller laptop memory sticks. Make sure it's DDR3, not DDR3L or DDR4, those won't work.

What speed RAM should I get?

1333MHz (also labeled as PC3-10600) is what's recommended. You can technically use faster RAM but it'll just run at 1333MHz anyway, so save your money.

Can I mix different RAM sizes?

Yeah, you can do like 2GB + 4GB if you want. Just know that dual channel performance works better with matched pairs (like 4GB + 4GB).

Do I need to remove the old RAM first?

Depends what's already in there. If both slots are full, you'll need to remove at least one stick. If you've got one empty slot, just add the new stick.

Will faster RAM like 1600MHz work?

It'll work but automatically downclock to 1333MHz. The system can't run memory faster than that, so you're basically wasting money on the extra speed.
