Asus UX303UB, time to take care

[riccardo_barone]

Hi,
After 4 years of use, i would like to take care of my laptop. It is a Zenbook UX303UB-R4182 (Intel Core i7-6500U, Ram 4GB, SSD 256GB, Nvidia GeForce GT940 2GB, 13,3" FHD).
My needs in terms of use are increasing (more photo-editing, more video-editing, more 3d programs), and it is struggling a bit when i am doing heavy tasks.
My idea was to upgrade RAM and SSD. In the near future, i am planning to plug a 4K monitor as well.
1) RAM: which is the best 8gb RAM that i can put? What is your suggestion?
2) SSD: will it support a 1TB SSD? if yes, which SSD do you suggest?

Thank you all!
Regards

Riccardo

Hello Riccardo,
This model support DDR3L 1600MHz RAM , there is only 1 slot for you to upgrade, and it support 8GB maximum.
For SSD, it only support 2.5 inch 7mm ones, we only tested the maximum to 512GB.
We are not able to guarantee the compatibility of 1TB.
Above information for your reference.
Thank you.

Perfect, thank you for the help. So the Samsung 860 EVO SATA 2.5" SSD (500 GB) will fit, right? I can't find the 7mm specs on it, but i think it is.

Hello Riccardo,
Yes, the thickness is fine.
Thank you.
