Devices specifications on HP site says it can only hold a maximum of 8 GB of RAM but online says otherwise for this model. Hoping for 16GB upgrade at the least.

Its specs
https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/c06145740
Could be a mistake. The specs says
- Dual channel memory architecture
- Two DDR4 UDIMM (288-pin) sockets
- Supports up to PC4-21300 (DDR4 2666)
- Supports 4 GB and 8 GB DDR4 UDIMMs
- Supports up to 4 GB on 32-bit systems
It has 2 slots, each slot supports 8GB that means total 16GB, not Supports up to 8 GB (unbuffered) on 64-bit computers
Regards.
