Since you have a 4 GB memory chip installed (I forgot your notebook only has a 4 GB chip and not an 8 GB one):

 

Your options would be to add another 4 GB memory chip in the empty slot and have 8 GB of memory running in dual channel mode.

 

Add an 8 GB memory in the empty slot and have 12 GB of memory running in single channel mode.

 

Add a 16 GB memory chip in the empty slot and have 20 GB of memory running in single channel mode.

 

I would spring for the most memory you are willing to pay for.

The link you posted indicates:  

 

Oh crumbs!

We couldn’t find what you’re looking for.

 

I can't guarantee you what memory will work.

 

You need to make sure the memory has these specs:

 

DDR3-3200 CL22 1Rx8 or 2Rx8.

 

If the memory you want to buy has the above specs, then it should work.

HP Recommended

I couldnt find where 1rx8 was so here:

HP Recommended

would that work

HP Recommended

Maybe you can contact the seller.

 

It doesn't provide the number of ranks or the CL speed from what I can see.  Just states DDR4-3200.

 

Not enough info to determine if it may work.
