Most configurations of the Dell Inspiron 15 3530 have SODIMM memory slots, so memory can be increased. We check what is fitted and the maximum the board supports.

Known issues with the Inspiron 15 range
- The charging socket is a separate part on most models and can be replaced without touching the motherboard.
- Hinge mounts in the lid and base are a known weak point on Inspiron laptops. Caught early it is a hinge and bracket repair; left alone it can break the screen bezel and back cover.
- Many configurations shipped with a mechanical hard drive. Moving to an SSD is the most noticeable improvement for the money.
