Hi,

 

As indicated, it uses  DDR2 PC2-6400 800Mhz RAM stick. Given higher speed RAM works, but installing higher speed RAM won't make the machine run faster because you have a fast car but using a freeway with speed limit and the laws even put a brake on your car.

Hi,

 

There are many models and they support 8Gb. Please use the following link:

 

   http://www.crucial.com/upgrade/HP-memory/HP+HDX-models.html

 

You can buy from them (they guaranty) or use the information to buy elsewhere. Please note: Windows 32bit won't access over 4Gb.
