G7

The Dell G7 supports up to 32 GB of DDR4 memory at 2666 MHz through two SODIMM slots, with each slot accommodating 4 GB, 8 GB, or 16 GB modules. For storage, it provides flexible options, including a 2.5-inch hard disk drive (HDD) or solid-state hybrid drive (SSHD) with a capacity of up to 2 TB, and a single M.2 2280 solid-state drive (SSD) that supports either SATA or PCIe interfaces, with capacities up to 1 TB.

When upgrading your Dell G7 system, it’s important to choose components that are compatible with your specific model. For memory, make sure the new RAM matches the supported type (DDR4), speed (2666 MHz for the G7 15 7588 or 2933 MHz for the G7 17 7700), and does not exceed the maximum capacity. For storage, check which slots are available in your system and whether they support SATA or PCIe interfaces. Verifying these details beforehand will help ensure a smooth and successful upgrade.

To upgrade the RAM on your Dell G7 laptop, start by pushing the metal clips on either side of the RAM module outward to release it. The RAM will pop up at an angle, and you can gently pull it out. Next, align the notch on the new RAM module with the slot, then insert the RAM at a 30-degree angle and press down firmly until it clicks into place. Once the new RAM is securely installed, replace the back panel and secure it with the screws. Finally, reconnect all cables and power up your laptop.
