No, the system is only DDR3 compatible.

Welcome to the Dell Community @hardikchudasama
The "Thumbnail" notch is located at different locations on the memory.
Sorry but it will not fit.
Best regards,

Thanks for the support, but my second question is my laptop supports RAM up to 16 GB. So if I want to add one more RAM and the RAM configuration can be the same as the first 4GB RAM has?

Hi,
Your laptop only supports.
Memory connector two SoDIMM slots
Memory capacity 2 GB, 4 GB, or 8 GB
Memory type DDR3 SDRAM 1600
Minimum memory 2 GB
Maximum memory 8 GB
I doubt it supporting anything else than that.
Check the manual below for more info on page 59 of 81

That's correct @hardikchudasama
You can add another 4GB for a total of 8GB. [2x4GB = 8GB total]
Try to match the one installed already.
@hardikchudasama
16GB has been tested.

Dell manuals are a good reference to what was sold with the laptop.
They in no way reflect the limitation of the hardware.

@ U2CAMEB4ME
One question, the limit says that it is 8Gb but what happens if I put more, for example one of 8Gb and one of 4Gb, would it damage the laptop?
