HP 2000 Notebook PC

I found an HP 2000 laptop with 2 gbs of ram, and it runs incredibly slowly. I cannot find out whether it supports 16 or 8 gbs of ram. If it has a limit of 8 gbs, can I remove the ram limit?

The AMD E300 processor can only support 2 x 4 GB of memory.

 

You can increase performance by replacing the 2.5" 320 GB mechanical hard drive with a better performing 2.5" 500 GB solid state drive (SSD).

 

Something like this:

 

Amazon.com: Western Digital 250GB WD Blue SA510 SATA Internal Solid State Drive SSD - SATA III 6 Gb/...

 

Suggested 4 GB memory:

 

Timetec 4GB DDR3L / DDR3 1600MHz PC3L-12800 / PC3-12800 Non-ECC Unbuffered 1.35V / 1.5V CL11 2Rx8 Du...
