I have a PC Notebook HP - 15-bs040ns

 

RAM: It has 1x (4 GB DDR4-2133 SDRAM). ¿Can I add another 4GB or 8GB DDR4-2133 module without uninstalling it?

 

DISK: It has 500GB HDD. ¿Can I install an SSD (SATA, M.2, ...) drive without uninstalling the one it has?

 

Thanks

1. For RAM: your machine supports 16GB max, you can have following upgrade options

 

   (a) To 8GB: simply add 4GB to its second slot,

   (b) To 12GB: simply add 8GB to its second slot,

   (c) To 16GB: remove old RAM and add 8GB on both slots.

 

  You can use following RAM or similar (they will run at 2133NHz automatically)

2. For M.2 SSD: your machine does not have M.2 slot for SSD. You can upgrade to 2.5" normal/standard SSD if you wish using the following products or similar

Thank you very much.

 

For the SSD upgrade, does it mean that I have to remove the existing HDD first or may I install the SSD besides the HDD?
