If you would mention the exact model number of this HP 20 series, I could be better able to assist you with the knowldge that my support would be based on the recommendations of HP.

@Utpalendu,

Just be sure that the memory will work with your system.  Memory modules are like auto oil filters.  Unless you pick the exact part number that works, it will fail.

Increasing the installed memory will not give it a performance boost.

 

Upgrading from a legacy hard drie to an SSD will.
