HP Touchsmart 15 upgrade memory and HD

[tonycolla]

I'm looking to eke a bit more life out of this laptop. What's the max RAM and SSD size I can upgrade it to?

Product: M2Z47UA#ABA

Model: 15-r221cy Rev 2213-120

While I'm at it, is there anything else I can swap out? Wireless antenna, maybe? GPU? CPU? It's a long shot, but what the heck! It costs me nothing to ask!

Thanks for taking the time to read this!!

The specs of your machine is

Since it only has 2.16GHz Intel Pentium N3540 Processor with Turbo Boost up to 2.66GHz. I would not spend money and time to upgrade it. But if you wish you can

1. Replace 4GB af RAM with 8GB of RAM usong

2. Replace 1TB 5400RPM hard drive with

You can't replace CPU and GPU you have to buy a whole new System board and this may cost you an arm and a leg. The above parts (1 and 2) will set you at around US$150.
