Hi @germfree

 

Welcome to the HP Forums! 

 

I understand that you are wondering if you can add ram to your HP Pavilion 10 TOUCHSMART 10-e010nr Notebook. I am happy to look into this for you! 

 

I would recommend to go through this guide, Computer Is Slow (Windows 10). To verify the amount of memory currently installed and determine how much memory can be added, while your computer is turned on, follow one of the sets of steps below:

 

In Windows 10:

  1. In Windows, search for and open HP Support Assistant.

  2. In HP Support Assistant, under Learn click Product information.

    Figure : Support Assistant

    Support assistant open with Product information selected
  3. See the System memory section under Specifications for details about the memory that is currently installed.

    Figure : System memory information

    System memory information selected on the Support Assistant screen
  4. To find the total amount of memory that can be added, subtract the amount of memory currently in the computer from the maximum amount of memory the computer can hold. To see the maximum memory the computer can hold, refer to Finding memory information for your computer model.

  5. To find the amount of memory per slot, divide the maximum amount of memory that the computer can hold by the number of memory slots on the motherboard. Usually, this is the maximum amount for each memory socket. For example, if the computer is capable of holding a maximum of 4096 MB (4 GB) of memory and the motherboard has four memory slots, install 1 GB (or less) per slot.

No, the 2GB RAM is embedded into the motherboard. I upgraded my harddrive to SSD and it dramatically improved performance.
