@NotAJedi

 

Your machine is an HP Star Wars Special Edition 15-an050nr. Its specs

 

      https://support.hp.com/sg-en/document/c04851694

 

It has  6GB DDR3L SDRAM (2 DIMM)) and you can upgrade to 16GB of RAM max. You can also replace existing HDD with a 2.5" SSD.  The following vendor sells compatible RAM and SSD for your machine. They guarantee their products are compatible with your machine.

 

Regards.

Will the double pack in the link I attached to my prior post work?

 

Also, what is the difference between 1866 SODIMM and 1600 SODIMM. Is the 1866 faster? If so, can I still use it with this laptop since it isn't DDR3L?

 

Thanks!

@NotAJedi, sorry for not answering your question.

 

Yes, they are on the list of compatible memory.  You should be fine.  If you need help Crucial's Tech Support is very helpful.
