Vostro 3520, memory upgrade?

I have recently purchased a Dell Vostro 3520 laptop. It came with 16GB (2x8GB 3200MHz KRVFX) of ram. Can this laptop be upgraded to 32GB of ram? I have seen that the laptop has two slots for memory chips and it can accept 16GB chips. So my question is whether there are other hardware limits that would prevent the use of two 16GB memory chips?

Yes, you may use a matched pair of two x 16 GB sticks in your Vostro 3520. Here are some Crucial memory sticks that are guaranteed compatible with your system.

Follow the disassembly and reassembly steps in Dell's Service Manual.

Whenever touching components or working inside a computer, wear a grounded wrist strap, also called anti-static wrist strap, ESD wrist strap, or ground bracelet. It's a cheap and sensible precaution. Rest the laptop on an anti-static mat or at least a reasonable alternative such as corrugated cardboard.

Thank you for your reply. However when I go to the link at Crucial the link no longer works. When I try to search from my laptop, it does not come up.

Officially, Dell only supports 16GB. So if you have issues, we will ask you to return the system back to our memory sticks before we would troubleshoot any issue. Online Vostro 3520 Setup and Specifications PDF =
