Hi David,
I'm not sure if you refer to 4 or 8 GB per slot or in total. But anyway, I've
checked for RAM on amazon.de, and found offers 2 x 4 Gb or 2 x 8GB by a brand
called Corsair.
Those seem to be made for laptops. Perhaps you can check if those are good for
you (or maybe someone has experience with those).
So - unless someone has RAM to give away - I'm happy to order those for you.
Best,
Robert
