Sounds like you are also seeking to buy SODIMMs.

Pg 48 of the same users manual states:

Optional memoryv
512-MB DDR3-1066 SDRAM SO-DIMM (PC3-8500) card × 1
1-GB DDR3-1066 SDRAM SO-DIMM (PC3-8500) card × 1
2-GB DDR3-1066 SDRAM SO-DIMM (PC3-8500) card × 1
(maximum of 4.0 GB)

Doesn't look like you can get 8GB.

The manuals usually list the Max as was they tested at the time. The That laptop has 2 DIMM slots thus 4-GB DDR3-1066 SDRAM SO-DIMM (PC3-8500) card × 2 should work fine.

I also see 8GB RAM kits being sold for less than $40.

That being said used x200 laptops can be had as low as $75

So it can have 8GB? Even if not, it can have 6GB?
