HP Pavilion - 14-bf125tx M.2 and ram upgrades

[madmanthan21]

I was wondering if the 14" Pavillion has an M.2 slots, and how many RAM slots it has, can i upgrade the ram to 16GB (it comes with 12GB).

I am going to replace the HDD with an 1TB SSD anyway, but i wanted to know if i could have an M.2 SSD aswell.

EDIT: I was wondering how many Ram slots this particular model has, and weather it has an M.2 slot

I have got the same question, and do you hear weird clicking sound from hard disk?

Thanks for reaching out to us on HP Support Forums. 🙂 I came across your post and would like to assist.

I understand that you have an HP Pavilion - 14-bf125tx and would like to know if it supports an M.2 SSD and how much memory can be added. 

I did some digging on this and came across the service guide for this laptop. As per the service guide, this laptop does not support M.2 SSD. Moreover, there is 1 memory slot in the laptop. The page# 51 shows that the maximum memory that can be added in 8 GB and your laptop already has 12 GB memory (4 GB (onboard) and 8 GB (1 x 8 GB)).

Hope this answers your question. Keep me posted. Take care! 🙂

Let me take a moment to thank you for posting on the HP Support Forums. 

You may install a SATA SSD. SATA SSD should work fine.

Hope this answers your question. Keep me posted for any further questions. Take care! 🙂
