Chosen Solution

How do I add storage memory and needed parts/memory. Also, how do I determine if I currently have the maximum allowed storage memory. Thank you, James

To start with here’s a spec sheet on your system: HP EliteBook 8530p Notebook PC Here’s HP’s memory upgrade guide for your system: Memory Modules User Guide. You’ll need the following: DDR2 SDRAM, 800 MHz 1024/2048/4096 MB SODIMMs Total memory supported = 8GB

@titifu, You can use any combination up to a maximum of 8GB made up of 1GB, 2GB and 4GB modules as long as they are all DDR2 800MHz (PC2-6400). The options are 1GB = 1+0, 2GB = 2+0, 3GB = 1+2, 4GB = 4+0 or 2+2, 5GB = 1+4, 6GB = 2+4 and 8GB = 4+4. Here’s the maintenance and service guide for the laptop. Go to p.57 to view the necessary pre-requisite steps and then the procedure to remove/replace the memory modules
