Answer 1

Yes, the Asus board supports 8 GB modules

"Number of Memory Slots: 4

Memory Form Factor: DIMM

Maximum Memory: 32 MB"



No, the Samsung product you are looking at is not an 8 GB module.

It is a kit of 2 x 4 GB modules

"Number of Modules: 2 x 4 GB"



Ask a reputable RAM seller to recommend compatible RAM for your mobo and offer a compatibility guarantee.

Answer 2

Yes it will support up to 4 sticks of it. Keep in mind tho, adding any more than 8 gigs is total overkill so don't fill it up thinking it will run better because it will never use 8 gigs.

Answer 3

Any hard Drive will support any motherboard don't worry.
