Hello everyone, i've bought HP Probook 430 G5 2SX86EA, and ther is only 8GB RAM instaleed which i want to upgrade, making 16 GB RAM total. The default pane is Samsung 8GB DDR4 PC4-19200 [M471A1K43BB1-CRC]. I got acces only to similar Samsung 8GB DDR4 PC4-19200 [M471A1K43CB1-CRC] in stores. Now here comes the question. Can i use Samsung RAM pane with CB1 index in this model, because as soon as i can tell tech parameters are the same, the only difference is in component revision number (BB1->CB1)? Also, will it work in dual mode?

It may or may not even boot up.
Both memory modules might not even be recognized by the BIOS and OS.
For the upgrade to work without any issues, the best practice is to install twwo guaranteed compatible modules that are identical in all respects. You are asking for a guarantee and that is something no one here can give. Sorry. The modules may operate individually and they may even work as expected.
In my location in Europe I see the M471A1K43BB1-CRC] modules as available.
Try a search like I did in your regional location. Perhaps they are available.
