17 R4, memory upgrade to 32GB

I have an Alienware 17 R4 and am looking to upgrade it from 16GB to 32GB.  I am struggling to determine what is the right memory to purchase.  The memory in the device currently is labeled 1RX8 PC4-2400T-SA1-11.  I would be grateful for some help. Respectfully 

Steve

It sounds like you have the 17 R4 and not the M17x R4 as you currently have PC4 memory. The M17x R4 has PC3 memory. 

You need DDR4 2400Mhz SODIMM memory. Make sure you get SODIMM memory for laptops. To get 32gb you will need 4 x 8gb sticks.

Crucial is the best place for Dell memory. Also check Dell and your manual for the configuration supported.
