Your Service Guide is here- http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c06691790.pdf  It shows 4 or 8GB modules in either slot.

You can go here https://www.crucial.com/store/crucial-advisor-trust  and look up compatible ram for your laptop.

Alternatively, Windows users can determine the maximum RAM capacity in the Command prompt (Run as Administer) with the command here- "wmic memphysical get MaxCapacityEX" without the quotes and divide the value by 1024 That will give you the total amount supported by your laptop.

Be advised that HP likes memory with relaxed timings, like the vanilla Crucial modules, or Samsung, SK Hynix modules work well. Don't buy any modules labeled as Performance ram, as there are no XMP profiles in bios to change timings.

 

All that being said, most people are satisfied with 16GB of memory. To go from 12 to 16GB, get a matching 8GB module to replace the 4GB module. If your laptop supports 32GB (kind of dicey on that generation chipset) then you could replace the 4GB module to a 16GB module or lastly, 2 16GB modules for 32GB. If your laptop supports it.
