Hi:

 

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

 

http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c04018268

 

Chapter 1, page 8 has the memory upgrade info.

 

Your notebook has one memory slot, and the maximum amount of memory the slot can take is 8 GB.

 

You can replace the 2.5" mechanical hard drive with a 2.5" SSD.

 

They don't make any 320 GB SSD's. so you can either install a 250 GB one, or a 500 GB one.

 

Chapter 4 has the memory and hard drive removal and replacement procedure.

 

Replacing the hard drive will be harder than replacing the memory.

Thank you so much for helping me

@WindaHamidah 

I notice you claim to be running Win10 32-bit -- so don't waste your money on 8GB of memory.  Why? Because 32-bit OS limits you to using under 4GB of memory max.  So, only spend money on a 4GB memory stick.

You're very welcome.

 

Since your notebook originally came with a 64 bit operating system, I assumed you made a typo.

 

If you are running a 32 bit operating system, after you install the new SSD, clean install W10 64 bit, and your PC will be able to make use of the 8 GB of memory.

Hi:

 

This model provides the best performance for the price, IMHO.

 

500 GB:

250 GB:

A budget model that still provides decent performance is this one...

 

500 GB:

250 GB:

Hopefully, you will be able to buy one of these drives in Indonesia.
