Hello!
The HP Pavilion 17-ab008no comes with 12 GB RAM.
I would like to know how many RAM slots it has in total, if all are used from the beginning and thus if I can install more RAM memory on my own later and how much in that case.
Bye.

How lovely! Thank you for the information. I tried to look everywhere for this withouth any luck.
It's sad though, because I planned to buy one of these laptops and then MAXImize it later by buying more RAM.
But maybe it's common for laptops to have only 2 slots.
Thanks bye.
