Does HP ENVY - 17m-ae011dx supports two sDDR4 SDRAM 16MB each?

[Almodroque]

Hi i would like to upgrade the amount of RAM that  my HP ENVY - 17m-ae011dx has

presently it comes with two sDDR4 8 MB  for each of the two slots available

is it possible that the system supports two 16 MB sDDR4 to upgrade my system to 32 MB?

Thanks in advance!

The manual says the series supports

• Two SODIMM slots - Non-accessible/non-upgradeable
  DDR4-2400 Dual Channel Support (DDR4-2400 downgrade to DDR4-2133)
  Supports up to 16 GB max system memory
  8192 MB (4096 MB x 2)
  12288 MB (8192 MB +4096 MB)
  16384 MB (8192 MB x 2)  (your machine)

I believe the following set works and Crucial guarantees it

Hi,

Your notebook will support 32GB of DDR4 2400MHz RAM (2x16GB) even if the service manual mentions 16GB.

The RAM will run at 2133MHz.

Example:

On page 35 of the service manual, you can see the steps to install the RAM

Another upgrade you should consider, is inserting an M2 SSD or replacing the hard drive with a 2.5"SSD.

Hope it helps,
