If I wanted to get a matching 4GB stick to bring the RAM up to 8GB, could I just get another ECC 4GB 1600 stick?

I believe so. The computer supports up to 32G, there are at least 2 memory slots if not 4. It comes with one 4G stick. Just remember that it's ecc

Yes, I bought the sticks from Amazon: I have 20 GB in my machine. Got to Crucial and type in the machine/model. It will tell you the part number.

Yes, I just did that with 5x of them and it works perfectly. They come with a single 4gb module and adding a second one improves the memory throughput as well because it then goes in dual channel mode. Just be sure to install it in the same color slot as the one that's already in there and you'll be all set. Hope that helps!

Supports up to 32gb Of ECC or Non-Ecc ram. I used " Patriot Extreme Performance 16 GB DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Memory Module PV316G160C0KBL "Works fine with Non-Ecc memory.Patriot Extreme Performance 16 GB DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Memory Module PV316G160C0KBL

Check with the manufacturer. Usually there is a compatible ram list for each system board.

I think so since they are both 1333 and ddr3, but open it up to make sure your machine has the extra slot open. Other than that, it should work. Be aware that if your machine maxes out at 8 gb like many laptops this is not for you. You would be better off getting a 4gb stick.

The more sticks in pair, the better it will function. You would want to get 4 sticks of 8gb if you have enough slots. What in the world are you running that needs 32gb of ram? I don't think I've ever used over 8 gb at one time.

I believe there are only two slots for ram memory sticks and both are being used by the existing 2 gig of ram each. To get it up to 8 gigs you may need to remove both memory sticks and install 2 new ones of 4 gig each. Basically you are throwing away the existing ram to upgrade to full 8 gigs. As for me, since I only use it as a multimedia server for my bedroom the 4 gigs is very adequate. Good luck.

Yes, these are two sticks of 4 gigs each for a total of 8 gigs of ram. They're on sale for $65! Get them! (I paid $85 :p)

you can use the single 8GB stick. As mentioned elsewhere, it will probably run a bit faster with 2 sticks of 4 (as long as you aren't using slower memory).

No. ECC memory is only for servers. You should use non-ECC memory for this machine.

Yes, it should be fine with an 8GB stick and a 4GB stick. Though you'd get slightly more performance out of 2 x 8GB sticks.

As to your system, these should work just fine. You basically have the same HP as mine. Technically I believe you could go even higher than the 4 GB's listed here. When I got mine I noticed a slight increase in speed but nothing worth really mentioning. Without knowing what you want to achieve can't say how much these will help. Also you didn't mention how much RAM you currently have. If your currently running 1GB per stick, will make a big difference. If you currently have 2 per, not so much. And if you already have 4 per, you won't see any change. But again, you should be able to run even higher than these 4's.

I don't think they've officially said one way or the other yet. I strongly suspect it'll be possible, because it seems like there are 2 RAM slots available and you should be able to pop in a second 2GB stick if you really want, but you'll probably have to wait until these are officially released to find out how easy or difficult that'll be in practice.

it has a max of 12gb and 1 slot according to crucials website. I believe the intergrated ram is 4gb, so an 8gb stick would max it out.

yes you can do that its pretty simple . all you need to find out your ram model . that you can call to customer care and asked them .then by online same memory and install it.

It will depend on how many slots your machine has available for RAM. Look in your machine to see if you have an empty slot. If you do, then you can just put more RAM in the empty slot. If all of the slots are taken, you will want to replace one of the smaller sticks of RAM with a larger one.

I'm not sure but I think so. There are only two slots in the mac book. They have to be the same Each stick have to be the same or equal amount. Best thing is Google the model number to make sure. What I've seem with 5 minutes of looking it said DDR 3 ram. Good Luck with it.

Is it posable, yes... is it recommended..OH HELL NOI would recommend that you remove both 2gb and replace with the two 4gb.. The way RAM works, is in a way that it will use both ports at the same time, and having two different sticks is only asking for trouble.. Where as if both are spec the same, they would operate at the same rate.

If you want to upgrade from 4GB of Ram to 8GB of Ram make sure you purchase one DDR3L memory stick. If you do not get the chip with L at end of DDR3 it won't work. You only need one chip to upgrade, that's what I did. I now have 8GB of RAM/
