RAM? Or storage?

I've never noticed RAM issues with KODI. And no, you can't add more RAM.

Storage on the other hand can be expanded on MM but it's not reliable in the moment. And storage in KODI can grow..... a lot. It depends how large is your library and how many thumbnails you have. And also, how many add.ons you have.

KODI runs smooth as is, at least the official version without all those piracy add-ons. Adding storage (just format a disk as internal, but that is broken ATM so don't) won't help with smoothness, it will just help with storing all those artworks and what not. You can always go to settings-apps-downloaded-find kodi and see how much storage it consumes.
