Hi:

Below is the link to the service manual for your notebook.

HP Pavilion x360 m3 (model numbers m3-u100 through m3-u199, m13-u100 through m13-u199, m3-u000 throu...

Chapter 1 has the memory upgrade info.

If you look at chapter 3 of the manual different motherboards are used for the models that come with M.2 SSD's and 2.5" hard drives.

Since your notebook has a 2.5" hard drive, in order to upgrade to a SSD, you would need to replace the 2.5" hard drive with a 2.5" SSD.

Below is the link to the Crucial memory site.

They have compatible memory for sale.

I would suggest that you buy the 2666 MHz memory because it costs much less than the 2400 MHz memory and should work just fine.

This is the 8 GB equivalent part number for the 4 GB DDR4-2666 MHz memory chip listed in the above memory report:
