Hi, Lawrence:

Your notebook has one memory slot, and the max memory you can install is 1 x 8 GB of DDR4-2400 memory.

The Pentium Silver N5000 processor uses DDR4 memory, not DDR3L like the older Pentium processors use.

You would have to remove the 4 GB memory chip and install an 8 GB memory chip.

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