    Is it possible to use 8-gig modules in U36SD? If yes, will it recognize more than 8 gigs of RAM?

    Hi Xeno.by

    In case you haven't found the answer yet, U36SD can work with 16GB RAM.
    I have tested it with 2 8GB DDR3 1333 Cl9 and it is working well.

    The Bios POST is slower though because of longer memory test.

    Hope this is helpful

    Yes, you have two SODIMMS to work with here. You can use up to 8GB sticks in each slot if you so desire. This has been tested.

    You would not be able to go higher than this, is my suggestion.
