Hi @SKB_g2d1,
Thanks for engaging in HP support Forums! This is a wonderful location to converse with the community, get assistance and find tips! I came across your post and wanted to assist you. I understand you are looking to upgrade the Memory on your HP notebook. Don't worry I'll be really glad to help you with this.
After reviewing your post, I did go through the Product specifications and found that there is 4 GB DDR3L SDRAM (1 x 4 GB) of RAM installed on your PC.
You can go ahead and install an additional 4 GB of RAM inside your PC. Please go through the Maintenance and service guide of your notebook and here you have a list of compatible and tested Memory on your PC.
All you need to ensure is the type of RAM when you purchase for example DDR3L-1600MHz which is supported on your PC.
I hope this answers your question. Let me know if you need any further assistance.
Feel free to post your query for any other assistance as well,
It's been a pleasure interacting with you and I hope you have a good day ahead.
If you wish to show appreciation for my efforts,
mark my post as Accepted Solution.

These are the Memory parts which are tested on your PC.
