I bought this Laptop in bestbuy.ca. In task Manager, I see the RAM slots as 4. How many slots does it actually have and what is the maximum limit for each slot?

Thanks
Praveen

In reply to Reza. Yes you can add an SSD drive if you remove the HDD. There is only one place for 2.5-inch drive. The GL553VD has an SSD M2 drive too...

In reply to Katherine Edward. It sounds like a driver issues or something. But Update the bios to v302 it might help fix the problem

Hi, I am experiencing one issue while using this laptop. Every time I turn on the Laptop (it freezes during start up) if peripheral devices (mouse and keyboard) are connected to it.

If not, then windows loads properly and I can plug the peripheral devices and it works successfully.

Is it an issue with the BIOS ? or what should I do ?

Thanks
