Product: HP 205 G6
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I want to upgrade to 8gb RAM on my G6 but am unsure of what aftermarket I can use.  I searched samsung 4gb 1rx16 pc4-2666v-sc0-11 and am finding mostly used and would prefer new.  I want to look at pricing for a different brand so I don't have to buy off of ebay.  Can someone provide exact specs for me(number of pins etc).

 

Thank you

Are you sure it is HP 205 G6  ? Or 250 G6 or 255 G6 ?

It's the 250 G6, I should have checked what I was typing.  HP specifies that's it's DDR4 2133 but the sticker on the RAM itself says 2666.  Is there any reason I shouldn't trust used memory?  It's significantlycheaper  than buying 2 new sticks (I don't like to mix brands).

 

Thank you,

Chris
