The service manual indicates the notebook can support 2 x 4 GB of memory:
But I think the notebook can support 2 x 8 GB of memory.
You can run this command to see how much memory your notebook can support:
1. In the search box, search for cmd and click Run as administrator.
This will open the command prompt.
2. Once command prompt is opened, type wmic memphysical get maxcapacityEx and press the enter key.
There, it will show the maximum RAM capacity your PC's motherboard can support.
The capacity is shown as Kilobytes, so you have to convert it to Gigabytes by dividing the number provided in the report by 1,048,576.
If the report indicates 16,xxx,xxx, then your notebook should be able to support 2 x 8 GB of memory.

If the report indicates 8,xxx,xxx, then this would be a compatible 4 GB memory chip:
