Product: HP Pavilion Dv6-6101ax
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi,   I am looking at upgrading my old Pavilion dv6-6101ax Entertainment notebook with a new SSD which  should help,  however my main concern is I cannot find any information on HP site or web as to whether this model laptop can be increased in RAM from currently 8 gb to 16 gb .

Currently  2 x 4GB,  DDR3 1333MHz.    Was going to purchase  2x 8GB - PC10600 SO-DIMM 204 pin 16000mhz.   Not sure if this would work in this model.

System is running Windows 10 -64 bit  on AMD A6-34MX APU.

any assistance would be appreciated.

Hi:

 

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

Chapter 1 has the memory upgrade info.

 

Notebooks with the AMD processors support 2 x 4 GB of memory, so you are at the max.
