Hey guys, I learned that SSD and RAM upgrades are only available on laptops. I saw in my laptop that the SSDs are 2 x 4GB PC3L-12800, but I'm unsure which upgrade options work. I checked Amazon and found some choices, but I need help deciding which one is best and if they fit together. Can you give me some advice? Also, are these parts compatible? Thanks.

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!
You may need to reconsider a 16GB RAM kit, as your laptop officially supports only up to 8GB. In that scenario, you should seek DDR3-1600MHz 1.65v, 1.5v or 1.35v options.
The brands you found seem low quality. If you really want 16GB, consider reputable companies like Corsair, G.SKill, Crucial, Transcend, Team group or Elpida. Since you're working with 8GB, you can either stick with it or risk buying a solid 16GB kit, keeping the above details in mind.
