Hi,

I have an x280 with 16gb of RAM. Does anybody know whether both memory modules are soldered? If not - is it possible to change one 8gb module and replace it with a 16gb module so that in total it has 24gb of memory?

Officially they support only 16gb RAM - but I am curious whether somebody tried it out :).

Thanks, Tai
 
There is only one slot in the Thinkpad X280 model. And that slot can support up to 16GB. But this slot has the memory soldered to the board itself. Hence when you purchase you have the option to choose 8GB memory variant or 16GB memory variant. Cannot be upgraded by the user.
