HP Notebook - 15-bs150sa memory upgrade

[Boombabo]

Hi

I'd like to upgrade the memory to at least 8gb (for now). What type of memory should i buy for this notebook. I'm looking for a 4gb. The Notebook has 4 GB DDR4-2400 SDRAM (1 x 4 GB) already installed. Also How much memory can i add altogether?

Welcome to HP Support Forums. A really great platform for posting all your questions and finding solutions

I understand that you would like to upgrade the memory and you have some Questions.

I could help.

Your Notebook can Supports up to 16 GB of system RAM.

If you want to upgrade to 8 GB, you need to use 2 x 4 GB Ram or 1 x 4 GB Ram.

You can refer to Page 7 in this UserGuide.

You can order it from our Phone Support.

Cheers, do i need to install ddr4 ram or would a 4gb DDR3-1333 204pin work?, i believe they use different voltages so what im basically asking is would an older type ram still work.
