Satellite M70: RAM upgrade

My laptop only has 512 MB and a Crucial Scan, said the following:

Currently installed memory:
512 MB
DDR PC2-5200
VACUUM

Memory each slot can hold DDR2 PC2-4200, DDR2 PC2-5300 with a maximum of 1 GB per slot.*

Yes, after looking on the ebuyer page: http://www.ebuyer.com/store/Componen...ptop?refmen=tn

What should I be looking for to get? I want 2GB in total and this: http://www.ebuyer.com/product/106116 seems to be the cheapest option for my needs. Is it right for my laptop?

I thought that this laptop only supports 4200 as a max?
But nevertheless, your choice should be very well and your laptop should manage modules.

Don't forget the 2 GB maximum, so 1 GB for each slot machine.

  • Satellite M70 - 160 upgrade memory module RAM

    Hey, guys... I am the proud owner of a Satellite M70-160.
    I am considering upgrading my ram memory (I have 512 ddr2 at 533 mhz) and I woul like an another 512 and I have 2 problems. The first is that the memories of toshiba is the best? I mean they offer 2 types of memory ddr2 512 PA3412U - 2M 51 and PA3412U - 1 M 51.

    The second question is "can I use other brands of memory ddr2 512 RAM sticks?" I mean they have to be exactly the same as that which is inside the laptop? Because I have seen other brands than ddr2 512 to 50% of the Toshiba offer those... In fact someone at the main dealer of Toshiba in Romania offered me another brand, SILICONE - something... (or something like that).

    Thank you very much!

    Hello

    I think that the two bars of Toshiba offer the same performance, because they are the two PC2-4300. You should also be able to use other modules of the same type. They are simply not tested by Toshiba.

  • Re: Satellite A100 - RAM upgrade

    I'm looking at upgrading the Ram PC following Toshiba laptop: TOSHIBA Satellite A100 PSAA0C-LE400E

    The RAM I can upgrade is as follows:
    Memory slots / Max: 2 slots of RAM - bottom of the unit (available to the user), busy one with 512 MB DDR2 PC2-4200; can be filled with 128 MB, 256 MB, 512 MB, or 1 GB DDR2 (2048 MB = 1024 x 1 + 1024 MB x 1 MB Max)

    Memory: 512 MB PC2 - 4200 DDR2
    Running under windows 7 32 bit

    My Question is that I found Ram named series SQ G.SKILL DDR2 533 MHz (PC2-4200) 2GB SODIMM Memory (F2-4200CL4S-2GBSQ)
    Where can I put in 4 GB of ram instead of 2 GB max as shown above.

    I would say that if it fits it and works it should be able to use up to 3 GB of it with a 32-bit operating system but someone tried?

    Hey,.

    If the so-called specifications that you can use 1 GB in each slot and a maximum capacity of 2 GB RAM, why do you buy 4 GB of RAM?
    In addition on a 32-bit operating system you can use only up to 3.2 GB

    In your case, I would like to purchase 2 modules of RAM with 1 GB of capacity, and it works.

    I can recommend the modules of RAM Kingston, because they are quality products and never had a problem with them.

  • Satellite A100 RAM upgrade - 746

    Hey all
    I have a Satellite A100 - 746. And I want to prolong her memory. But I can't find its specification anywhere on the internet. Not even on the Toshiba site. It's just like that, this model does not exist and I am the only one to buy it.
    I want to upgrade my RAM and I can't find any information until I can upgrade memory, I can improve to 4 GB?
    And I use the memory in pairs? As I have now 2 x 512 MB RAM. I want to delete a 512 MB and put 2 GB instead. Will it work? Or I have to use a couple?

    Anyone who can help me please, I'm so frustrated.
    Thank you very much

    You are right. This model laptop can handle with 4 GB RAM max. Do not use two identical RAM modules. According to the specifications of the laptop, you can use DDR2-533 RAM 1 GB module (PA3411U-2M1G). Using two of them you will have fantastic 2 GB of RAM and it is more than enough for Windows XP Home edition.

    Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find the module of RAM 2 GB for your laptop.
    You use Windows XP Home or Vista edition?

  • Options for Satellite U200 RAM upgrade

    Hello

    I read a few posts here, but I'm a noob of material and you want to be absolutely sure I chose the right RAM module.

    I want to be exactly if the module I buy will work with my computer laptop u200 (especially not the damage, if that's even possible).

    I'm looking at _Kingston 2 GB 200 pin PC2-5300 DDR2 SODIMM_

    Found here:
    101436 http://www.FutureShop.ca/catalog/prodDetail.ASP?logon=&langid=en&sku_id=0665000FS10 & catid =

    Please let me know if you need more details.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    According to specification for laptop, your laptop uses the module DDR2 - 533 MHz RAM. There's Kingston 667 MHz, but it will work on your laptop without problem.

    So, but there is something else: I don't know which U200 you but it seems to be that your laptop can be upgraded up to 2 GB max. So, in my opinion, you should buy two 1 GB Rams. If you want to buy tested one, to check for the DDR2-533 1 GB with PA3411U-2M1G part number.

  • S1000-Z2 satellite drivers & ram upgrade

    Hello world
    I was invited by a friend to fix his old laptop! It seems to be out of the Ark, however :-)

    He had a pre-installation of XP home, which seems to be rather drunk, I decided to format and reinstall...

    The problem is that I can't find the modem driver? As the laptop does not appear in the drop on the Toshiba site lists...

    Also someone known all the details on the amount of ram may take? There are currently 1 stick of 256 MB installation and a slot empty if cpuZ does not lie to me.

    Any help would be great?

    Portable full details:
    Toshiba Satellite S1000-Z2
    Model No.: PS100E-001RE-EN
    Series: 42064989C

    Hello

    Maybe you need to download the drivers for the modem from here:

    http://209.167.114.38/support/download/ln_byModel.asp

    They have for most of the drivers that are not on the site of toshiba Europe.

    I hope you find what you need.

    On your RAM issue, I think that the machine can handle a maximum of 1 GB, so you can install at least two 512 MB modules in this machine.

  • Satellite M100 RAM upgrade

    Hello
    Just a quick question. Can I use DDR2 667 MHz 2 GB of RAM in an M100?

    Apparently, it is RAM PC5300, but the manual says it is recommended that PC5400 RAM should be used.

    Don't want to shell out $79 to find it does not work.

    Thank you

    Hello

    First of all, you should check your FSB.
    If the bus front end (FSB) would support the 667 Mhz then your memory installed modules would go to 667 Mhz.
    But if your FSB supports only 533 Mhz and 667 Mhz modules will be reduced to 533 Mhz in modules will not work at full speed.

    By the way; Are you sure you can use a 2 GB RAM module?
    If your laptop can be upgraded to 2 GB only, then you must use the RAM modules of 1 GB max.

  • Upgrading RAM on Satellite M70-215

    Hi all.

    I'm sorry if a similar topic has been created under the same title before.

    I did a little research before posting my question here and noone about were really able to help.

    I want to upgrade my Satellite M70-215 memory original 512 MB to 2 GB. I took the machine to a computer technician, but he has not been able to locate the second memory location (it was supposed to be placed under the keyboard) so he told me I can get the memory of my laptop RAM upgrade up to 1 GB only.

    This has me calm that confused as what I have read on laptop manual, I should have no problem up to 2048 MB max memory upgrade.
    I can upgrade my laptop to 2048 MB memory or make me a second location for RAM memory at all?

    Any help is very appreciated!

    Regs

    > I took the machine to a computer technician, but he was not able to locate the second memory location
    Is this a joke? ;)
    Tell him please he should give up and do something else.

    The two RAM slots are under the memory cover down. Remove the cover and you will see two slots here. Maybe the second slot is covered by memory module. Check it out.

    And Yes, you can improve M70 up to 2 GB, but please use the modules of 1 GB compatible.
    I have the Satellite M70-159. Large notebook.

  • Satellite M70 needing an upgrade of RAM?

    Hi all

    I have a Satellite M70 who suffers.
    It's all slow and despite my music collection among other major programs to transfer on a drive external HARD, my laptop frequently slows down and blocks much to my annoyance.

    I regularly have a frag my HD on a base twice a week which helps a little, and I delete the temporary files, the Recycle Bin as well at the end of each month, but nothing seems to speed it up significantly. I run Spyware Doctor, but he does not reveal anything that would explain such a slow performance.

    Could someone advise me what to do?
    I asked for advice in this regard other suggestions is considering upgrading the RAM in an attempt to speed it up.

    Kind regards

    WMorgan86

    Hello

    In your case I would check and start the MSCONFIG and would disable some background process is not necessary in the Start button.

    The upgrade of RAM would be useful too.
    The M70 would support max 2 GB of RAM and you need DDR2 533 MHz (PC2-4200) 200 - PIN SODIMM modules!

    Instruction how to upgrade the RAM you will find in the user manual!

    Good bye

  • Upgrade RAM to Satellite M70

    Good so I bought a stick of 1 GB of Samsung pc 5300 677 MHz RAM for my Satellite M70 - sr3 when I plug the stick in the drive, not be online (HARD drive flashes once) and nothing appears on the screen. Means that the RAM is dead? Or I do something wrong?

    Maybe use you the incompatible RAM module. Your model of laptop is not known to me but on my M70 - 159 I use compatible DDR2 400/533 module of RAM 1 GB (PA3411U-1M1G).

  • Satellite M70-131 - I want to add more RAM

    Hello

    I have a Satellite M70-131
    Part number: PSM70E-01500RAR

    I want to add more RAM, because I know you have to check three points to buy a new:
    -How can I add?
    -The type of RAM?
    -The number of the BIOS or BUS?

    I'm not sure about the third point, I know that I can add to 2G, and the type of RAM is DDR2.
    But if I have the right point, how can I check the number (BIOS or BUS)? Because I tried to add one, but did ' t work!

    Help me please
    Thnx 4 all

    Hello!

    The Satellite M70-131 can be upgraded to 2 GB of RAM and you have already said you need DDR2 RAM.
    Specification for RAM is DDR2 400/533 and you can add two modules with 1 GB of capacity of each module. The reference is PA3411U-1M1G.

    What do you mean with many BUS and BIOS? This has nothing to do with an upgrade of RAM.

    Good bye

  • Re: upgrade memory Satellite M70-159

    Is ddr2 sdram so-dimm PC5300, 667 Mhz kingston 1 G memory compatible with my laptop?
    I know that this memory will run as PC4200, but I don't know where to buy PC4200.
    Thank you.

    The Satellite M70 can be upgraded to 2 GB of RAM.

    The Kingston RAM must be compatible with your laptop because Kingston's high-quality RAM and many users here upgraded with modules from Kingston.
    And as you say that the RAM will work as long as PC4200, it is not a problem.
