Hello,

    I'm looking forward to upgrading my laptop specs, and it has 4Gb RAM. 

------------------------

My laptop: HP Pavilion 15 Notebook PC

Product No.:   J2R75EA#ABV

------------------------

I want to upgrade my RAM to 8Gb, and I don't know if it will be suitable for me or not.

RAM's link: http://www.crucial.com/usa/en/ct102464bf160b#productDetails

You have two RAM slots, so you will need to remove one of your existing modules to add another.  You can remove the smaller capacity module and install a higher one (4GBx1600 if you want 8GB total)  The RAM  you link is compatible with your machine.

Currently Installed:  6 GB 1600 MHz DDR3L SDRAM (1 x 2 GB, 1 x 4 GB)  

 

You'll need to remove a stick of RAM to add another.  I believe that will work for you.

I know it's so difficult, and of course I'll pick the right man for this step.
