Product: HP Laptop PC 14-d2000 (2D126AV)
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

I have fairly new HP14 dq2xx laptop and an older HP14 dq1xx laptop that I no longer use.

I'd like to upgrate the RAM in the dq2 machine.  Can anyone tell me if 1) there is an open slot in the dq2xx laptop and 2) if the dq1xx RAM can be removed and placed into the dq2xx machine pretty easily?    This would be my first attempt at this, but I've got the older machine just sitting here and I'd like a bit more speed.  Thanks for reading, I'm extemely appreciative of any tips.

- peace - John

Hi @JohnN49 

 

please identify the exact product number that both laptops have

I'm afraid the dq1 series has the memory with lower frequency and cannot be used in the dq2 series.
