Hi:

 

Below is the link to the Crucial memory report for your notebook.

 

https://www.crucial.com/usa/en/compatible-upgrade-for/HP-Compaq/hp-omen-15-dc1093tx

 

You can add another 16 GB chip to the 8 GB one in there now, but you really don't want to leave it that way.

 

When you have an empty memory slot, or you install memory in mismatched capacities (1 x 8 GB + 1 x 16 GB for example), the memory runs in the lower performing single data rate (SDR) mode.

 

When you install memory in matched capacities (2 x 8 GB or 2 x 16 GB), the memory runs in the better performing dual data rate (DDR) mode.
