Upgrade RAM and SSD on Erazer Scout E10 ( MD 62527, MSN 30035424)

[GEM]

Hi all

I'm looking to increase RAM and storage on my Scout E10 (MD 62527, MSN 30035424).

I couldn't find this model on the Crucial.com website.

For the RAM: As there are apparently 2 RAM slots, one is taken by an 8GB stick, the other seems free .

- Can I put any DDR4-3200 stick or is it better to have a particular make/model?

- Is it OK to put for example a 32 GB in addition to the existing bar (8 GB), even if it seems unbalanced to have an 8 Gb-32 GB pair or a 8 Gb-18Gb one?

For the SSD: is there a free slot on my machine ?

Can I add a second SSD without touching the existing one?

- Can I take any PCIe NVMe M.2 or is it better to take a particular make/model?

Thank you for your answers

Bonjour @GEM  and welcome
Manufacturer brands are usually not mentioned here, all commercially available ones are suitable.
You can upgrade the RAM to a maximum of 64 GB. equal pairs are recommended.
8 GB DDR4 SO-DIMM (PC4-25600 / 3200 MHz) is now installed
and an SSD / M.2 (2280) 512 GB Phision PCIe GEn 4x4. you can install another SSD M.2 PCIe GEN 3x4. Your computer is a barebone Clevo NP70PNJ (-M). Here you will find a service manual which describes how to disassemble it. load NP70PNHPNJPNK SM(20221222).zip
