Adding RAM to EliteBook 8560W

[peac4ustoday]

I would like to add RAM to my EliteBook and have not been able to figure out the correct part # AND can I just "plug" it into the second slot?  Currently have a 4GB RAM in slot 1.

Hi,

From the manul/guide:

• In models that use quad-core processors, four SODIMM customeraccessible/upgradeable memory module slots supporting up to 32 GB of RAM
• In models that use dual-core processors, two SODIMM customeraccessible/upgradeable memory module slots supporting up to 16 GB of RAM

PC3-10600, 1333-MHz, DDR3
Supports dual-channel memory
Supports the following configurations:
● 2048 MB Total System Memory (2048 x 1)
● 4096 MB Total System Memory (4096 x 1)
● 4096 MB Total System Memory (2048 x 2)
● 8192 MB Total System Memory (8192 x 1)
● 8192 MB Total System Memory (4096 x 2)
● 8192 MB Total System Memory (2048 x 4) — only available with quad-core processors
● 16384 MB Total System Memory (8192 x 2)
● 16384 MB Total System Memory (4096 x 4) — only available with quad-core processors
● 32768 MB Total System Memory (8192 x 4) — only available with quad-core processors

From HP part store:

2 GB (PC3-10600, 1333 MHz, DDR3) 621565-001
4 GB (PC3-10600, 1333 MHz, DDR3) 621569-001
8 GB (PC3-10600, 1333 MHz, DDR3) 634091-001

Looks like your machine only has 2 slots therefore you can add 4GB more or add 8GB more to make 12GB (note: in this case put 8GB in slot 1 - I normally call it as slot 0).

Regards.
