Hi guys,

I'm in search of the RAM Chip that's on the Synology DiskStation DS220j

I found a repo where you can see the DS218 RAM Chip, which should be the same, since they should share the same CPU Chip.
Github Link
I'm searching for this because I would like to upgrade the RAM from 512GB to 1GB/4GB
Some say the Realtek chip isn't powerful enough, but I couldn't care less, since it does work for the things I need, if only it didn't need to use SWAP...

Thanks for reading and helping

You sure you want to attempt a ram upgrade/replacement...?

Is what I can read from your image and this is the closest I've come across;

but i wouldn't attempt a ram upgrade as you're imagining it to be if you're not adept with soldering and you don't have the right setup/tools.
