HP 15-da0000 upgrades
Released 2019 · on sale
CPU is BGA soldered and not user-replaceable (8th/7th-gen Core U-series 15 W, Gemini Lake 6 W), so there is no CPU slot. Covers 15-da0000/da1000, 15q-ds, 15g-dr and 15t-da chassis per service manual L19674-002. Verify your exact product number before buying parts — variants differ in RAM config, GPU and included mounting hardware.

2× DDR4 SO-DIMM (260-pin), no soldered RAM 2 × DDR4 SO-DIMM · up to 32 GB total · 2400 MT/s
2 user-accessible SO-DIMM slots, non-ECC unbuffered DDR4-2400 (PC4-19200). HP/kingston officially document 8 GB modules (16 GB total), but 2×16 GB = 32 GB is verified working and matches the CPU's 32 GB limit; a 64 GB claim found online is wrong. Faster modules clock down to 2400. Matched pair enables dual-channel. Some Celeron/Pentium SKUs may run single-channel.

M.2 2280 M-key + 2.5" SATA bay (both usable at once) 2 × SSD / HDD M.2 2280 / 2.5" (NVMe / SATA) · max 7 mm thick
M.2 slot is Gen3 but reportedly wired only x2 lanes (~1.7 GB/s ceiling) — don't pay for Gen4/Gen5 drives. 2.5" bay takes 7 mm drives only; adding one to a unit without it needs HP bracket L20455-001, connector board L20454-001 and cable L20456-001. M.2 is 2280 only (2242/2260 need an adapter). Most SATA M.2 SSDs work but some are detected unreliably — NVMe is the safer buy. No documented capacity cap; 1 TB NVMe confirmed.
