Wanted to do a RAM upgrade and was wondering what RAM would be compatible with my system, I know it currently has 1/2 slots taken. The RAM it came with is Samsung M378A1G44AB0-CWE 1x8GB. My motherboard is 8767 A (SMVB) according to HP Support Assistant application (I just copied and pasted it). Was wondering if there are any specific guidelines besides selecting one with the same speed or if I picked up another Samsung 8Gb DDR4 2666 GHz if it would work fine.

The specs of your machine is

It has 8 GB DDR4-2666 SDRAM (1 x 8 GB) now and you are saying it is Samsung M378A1G44AB0-CWE 1x8GB. The BEST option for dual channels architecture is to use SAME Samsung M378A1G44AB0-CWE 1x8GB for slot 2 or using the following compatible RAM
