There could be some differences between 15-ay models but this video shows two sockets for DDR4 memory

An easy way to find what memory you have is to run the wmic app from the windows command prompt. Bring up the window 'cmd' prompt and enter the first line to set what memory you have. The second line may give the maximum memory possible based on the chipset. The number of memory sockets limit what can be added.


wmic memorychip get devicelocator, capacity, speed, MemoryType, formfactor, partnumber, manufacturer


wmic memphysical get maxcapacityEx, MemoryDevices



Should look something like the following. To purchase identical memory search for the part number shown and look for the letters 'HP' on any label attached to the memory stick.
