8 GB DDR4 2133 SODIMM for HP 15-ba laptops

This 8 GB DDR4 module runs at 2133 MHz with CL15 timing and 1.2 V operation. It fits the HP 15-ba154nr, 15-ba160nb, 15-ba180ng, 15-ba500ng and 15-ba501ng notebooks. The 260-pin non-ECC unbuffered design is a direct drop-in upgrade for those models.

JEDEC PC4-17000 sustained operation

Built to JEDEC PC4-17000 specifications, the module maintains rated speed and latency during extended workloads without thermal throttling. The 2Rx8 organisation keeps bandwidth steady across long compile, render or virtualisation sessions. No heat spreader is fitted, relying on the laptop's existing airflow.

Verify slot count and maximum memory

Confirm the laptop has a free SODIMM slot and that the platform accepts an 8 GB 2Rx8 module at 2133 MHz. Some configurations may already populate both slots or limit total capacity below the added 8 GB. Check the service manual for the exact slot layout before ordering.

Questions about this item

How much power does the 1.2 V DDR4 module draw when the laptop runs all day?

The module operates at 1.2 V, the standard DDR4 voltage, so it adds minimal load to the HP 15-ba series power budget during continuous use.

What must the HP 15-ba154nr already have for this 260-pin SODIMM to work?

The laptop needs a free DDR4 SODIMM slot that accepts 260-pin PC4-17000 memory; the module is unbuffered, non-ECC and CL15, matching the factory specification.

Will the CL15 2133 MHz stick run correctly alongside the original memory in a 15-ba500ng?

Yes, it meets JEDEC DDR4-2133 CL15 at 1.2 V, so the system will clock both modules to the same speed and timings automatically.
