How to replace 1GB of RAM to 2GB or 3GB on my HP Stream 8 Tablet?

[Gerzon]

My HP Stream 8 Tablet with Windows 8.1 which comes with 1GB RAM, which is the minimum requirement for Windows 10 on 32-bit systems can to add the RAM above 1GB so that safe to upgrade Windows 10.

If I can replace the existing 1GB of RAM with a 2GB or 3GB of RAM stick, Where can I buy 2GB or 3GB of RAM and how to install it?

If I upgrade my HP Stream 8 Tablet to Windows 10 with RAM only 1GB, having problem with slower performance on Win10-upgraded systems that have the minimum amount of RAM.

Appreciate if anyone can help me. Thanks.

Hi, the memory on the Stream 8 tablet is soldered to the mainboard and is not upgradeable.  Windows 10 requires 1 GB for 32-bit so it is the same as Windows 8.1 in that regard.

Hi kyle_b,

You are right that Windows 10 requires 1 GB for 32-bit so it is the same as Windows 8.1 in that, but after upgrading the tablet to Windows 10 the available hard drive space may be low because the Windows 10 installation stores a copy of the Windows 8.1 image on the hard drive for up to 31 days to enable the Go Back feature.
