HP 15 bs244wm memory upgrade 4GB or 8GB conflicting

[SeeUSpaceCowboy]

Hi, I am looking to possibly upgrade HP Notebook - 15-bs244wm memory from the current 4GB but I am getting conflicting information namely another thread "HP 15 bs244wm Ram/memory upgrade?" and various memory upgrade sites. 

This laptop has Intel Pentium® Silver N5000 processor and according to the user manual http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c05493257 is already at the max memory of 4 GB.  However according to some memory upgrade sites online I can upgrade to 8GB.  I read that Intel Pentium® Silver N5000 processors can indeed support 8GB of memory, if so,  which memory type would be the most optimal?

All help is welcomed, Thank you all.

Hi:

Yes, you are correct.  You can remove the 4 GB memory module and install an 8 GB memory module.

This would be a compatible 8 GB memory chip for your notebook.

That is great!  And would any brand 8GB sodimm DDR4-2400 (PC4-19200) work??

I recommend that you get the Crucial memory since they guarantee compatibility.

But in theory, any brand DDR4-2400 memory should work
