If you installed memory in matching capacities in each memory slot (2 x 4 GB, 2 x 8 GB), the memory is automatically running in dual channel mode.
If your notebook only has one memory slot, then the memory runs in single channel mode.

Single rank and dual rank are the type of memory layouts, not single channel or dual channel.

Install this free utility that I zipped up and attached below and it should show you that the memory is running in dual channel mode.
It will be indicated in the middle section of the summary report.
