This is a step by step tutorial about how to upgrade the memory (ram) & upgrade the harddrive on an Asus Viviobook Max X441BA Laptop X441BA-CBA6A.

## Asus X441BA CBA6A Memory (Ram) Upgrade ##
############
*****RAM UPDATE: ONLY USE the ram frequency 1866/2133mhz. Despite what Asus & Crucial have told me, 2400mhz IS NOT compatible with the Asus X441BA Main Board!! I learned this through trial & error until I realized what was wrong. I have went through Transcend, Crucial, & Kingston at 2400mhz and I could not even get to the BIOS!
I am now using:
Timetec Hynix 8GB Ram DDR4 2133MHz PC4-17000 Non ECC Unbuffered 1.2V 260 Pin Laptop: [ Ссылка ]
*****
Type: 8GB DDR4 2133mhz 260pin Laptop Ram Stick. The laptop comes with a soldered onboard 4GB memory chip. The motherboard only supports a max of 12GB (or a maximum of 8GB ram stick for the 1 available slot). You can purchase this item for $40 USD on Amazon.

## Asus X441BA Harddrive Upgrade ##
############
Supports up to a 2.5inch 2TB SATA3 harddrive. I recommend getting a Solid State Drive (SSD). It will make this laptop operate fast and smooth. They are extremely reliable after years of development and advancement. They also produce less heat and noise than a traditional mechanical HDD. You can purchase a 500GB SSD for $50 USD on Amazon.
With these two cheap upgrades, you can have a nice quick little laptop that will provide a pleasant experience.
