    Since it is HP why don't you download the Service Manual and look it over if it is dual memory it will most likely say it in there.

    1 x 8GB means one 8GB module which is single channel. However, this page with the detailed M2Y93EA specs shows 2 SODIMM slots which means the computer is potentially dual channel if you add more RAM. I can't vouch for the accuracy of that source.
