I'm trying to find a second RAM stick for my PC and the RAM with the exact model number I'm looking for is no longer manufactured/sold anywhere. I did find RAM that has almost the same model number but I'm not sure if it would still be ok. Would it?

Installed RAM's model number: HP26D4U6D8ME-16X

What I found: HP26D4U9D8ME-16X

The difference is just the number after the U.

the marriage of the two could work, no certainty!
the question is, do you really need 32 gb of ram...
