1.1. Notes and Precautions
All AS50 and AS51 Series NAS devices support up to 8GB of memory. Before adding or removing
memory modules, please read the following precautions thoroughly.
• Your NAS and memory modules use high precision components and electronic connector
technology. To avoid invalidation of the warranty during your product warranty period, we
recommend that:
Memory for AS50 and AS51 series devices may be purchased from local dealers or the
online ASUSTOR Accessories Store (http://shop.asustor.com
When expanding AS5 series memory, please ensure that both memory modules you
are installing are of the same size.
When p urchasing 8GB RAM modules, due to AS5 series platform limitations, you will
only be able to install a single 8GB RAM module. The original RAM modules must be
removed. It is not possible to have two 8GB RAM modules installed. Please see the
graphic below.

Inst allable RAM module combinations are as follows:
