Upgrading RAM on Satellite Pro A100-840

The specification for the Satellite Pro A100 840 said that memory has a maximum of 4 GB of memory. But it does not seem to be all provided by Toshiba that allows me to level to 4 GB of memory. This current has the default 1gn that was shipped when ordered. Anyone know how to get the 1 GB to 4 GB?

Thank you in advance for any help

Hello

I just wanted to check the specifications of the laptop but I was not able to find the Satellite Pro A100-840. Can you please check laptop model and send us the laptop model number.

In any case I really don't understand what your problem. It seems that your model of laptop can handle with 4 GB RAM max. According to your assignment, your laptop comes with 1 GB of RAM.

So if you want to use the maximum RAM on your laptop satellite, you must buy RAM 2 X 2 GB module. As far as I know, 2 GB RAM module are available and if you want to be sure of compatibility please check the Kingston products.

Please check this Kingston Memory Configurator

  • Question about upgrading RAM on Satellite Pro A100

    Hi all

    I have a Satellite Pro A100 PSAACE I want to upgrade. I currently have 1 GB of RAM in two 512 MB modules. I looked on Crucial.com and he says I need DDR2 PC2 4200 module (240 pin DIMM), but of course, they want to sell their own stuff that only comes in 1 GB modules.
    So, what is the maximum amount of RAM my computer can take? I would like to have more than 2 GB in order to make my page file smaller. Is 2 GB maximum I can put in?

    To be honest, I read several threads where people were not so happy with the RAMs from crucial. In my opinion, you should spend your laptop with 2 x 1 GB RAM. With 2 GB of RAM, your laptop will work fine and I'm sure you'll be happy with it.

    As recommendable modules, you must use either 1 GB (PA3411U-2M1G) or module recommended by Kingston.

  • Strange problem with RAM on Satellite Pro A100

    I have a Satellite Pro A100 (not sure which...)
    It came with 2x256mb RAM, which are mounted. I noticed my laptop slow, so I checked what he says on the properties of the workstation - who said RAM 192Mo...

    Any idea what's going on?
    I had a peek inside, both are mounted securely, while the right push entirely? There is a small gap (about 1 / 2mm) so that is the little nick and real editing. -What is the cause? Or it's maybe faulty?

    Please help me!
    Thanks in advance,

    Diana

    According to the description of your problem, I guess one of the memory modules is not recognized by the system and the specified result 192 MB of Ram only tell me that your laptop has shared graphics memory card.

    Satellite Pro A100 is fairly new to laptop and, in my opinion, you should contact service. The guarantee must be valid and if everything is defective it will be replaced free of charge.

    If possible, tell us what Satellite Pro, you have exactly. This info you can find on the lower side of your laptop.

    Your laptop can be upgraded up to 2 GB of RAM and compatible 1 GB of RAM except the number PA3313U-1M1G. Use this number for Google search.

  • Upgrading RAM on Satellite Pro A120-166

    Hi guys,.

    I m new on this forum and looking for a bit of technical advice. I'm looking to upgrade the memory in my Satellite Pro A120-166 to the threshold of 4 GB complete as described in the manual.

    How to choose what memory to buy? Is the speed of the memory must match the FSB on the processor or what?

    The online manual lists at 533 MHz FSB, but if I go into the performance of the system on my laptop, it says that it's an Intel (r) [email protected], 800 MHz, 256 MB RAM. This means that my FSB is 800 MHz?

    The online manual says that my phone comes with 256 MB of ram DDR2 (533 MHz), so I'm a little lost as to what side MHz memory to buy now.

    Help, please!

    Hello

    You are right about maximum RAM. You can improve it up to 4 GB.
    Toshiba recommends for compatible use PA3513U-1M2G (DDR2-667 2 GB Memory Kit).

    You can also use the module of Kingston. Visit their page, and you will find a list of the compatible modules.
    Please don't be confused about MHz. You can use the module with 667 MHz.

  • Upgrading RAM on Satellite Pro SP6100

    I want to improve my RAM on my Satellite Pro SP6100. Now, I have 256 MB and in the manual it s recommended to upgrade with 128 or 256 MB. One of my friends updated his SP6100 with 256 MB. But what I m wondering if I can improve it with 512 MB. I will use the same kind o RAM he bought but 512 MB instead. It works perfectly for him and he bought a 256 MB SODIMM 200pin PC2100 DDR - RAM.

    I was counting on the 512 MB SODIMM 200pin PC2100 DDR - RAM purchase.

    Is it OK to do this same s if not mentioned in the manual?

    Hello Daniel

    Yes you can update this unit with a module of 512 MB memory.
    As far as I know this unit has 2 memory slots, and it is possible to upgrade to max 1024 MB (2x512MB).
    In addition you can also use these modules:

    PC2100 128 MB (PA3126U - 1 M 12)
    PC2100 256 MB (PA3127U - 1 M 25)

  • Re: upgrade Ram on Satellite Pro C650

    Hi all

    I bought a new Satellite Pro c650
    psc09a-01w021

    It has 2 GB of ram (ddr3 1066)

    If I had to update my ram me, if it will void my warranty?

    Also... Toshiba site says it is expandable to 8 GB. If I install a 4 GB (to go with my current 2 GB) that would be nice?

    Thanks in advance

    Upgrade of RAM would not affect the warranty, although you would be upgrading the RAM yourself.

  • Upgrading RAM on Satellite Pro A10

    I want to upgrade the RAM on my Satellite Pro A10 - currently only 256 MB. I have a model A10-PS15E-02VPC-EN, which is P4 1.9 G - any advice on what the right extension configuration should be - I understand that I can go to 1 GB - if it was in a slot or should I get 2 modules of 512 MB and what model numbers should I expect?

    Hello

    According to the specifications of the laptop you can be upgraded to 1 GB Ram max. The compatible memory modules are:
    PC2100 256 MB (PA3127U - 1 M 25) and
    PC2100 512 MB (PA3164U - 1 M 51).

  • How to change the module RAM in Satellite Pro A100 (PSAACE)?

    Hey,.

    I just bought a RAM module to fit in my currently empty home of RAM, but I never installed any portable computer memort before that. I checked a few guides, but none seem to show the kind of clips that have the Pro A100.

    Could someone help me please by pointing me in the direction of a specific guide or taking their time to explain the process.

    Thank you in advance.
    Jason

    On the side at the bottom in the middle is placed the memory cover. Remove it and you'll see two memory slots there. I assume that your device comes with the memory module and new you must put in the empty socket and just press it. Two metal brackets will fix it in the right position.

    That's all you need to do. By the way: before you start doing anything, I recommend you disconnect AC power and also to remove battery.

  • SSD / upgrade RAM on Satellite Pro A30-C-10R

    I found this little beauty and wonder, how it is easy to upgrade SSD and RAM by myself.

    Thanks in advance

    I don't know how many slots DIMM it is on that laptop, but by the looks of it, there is only 1. So you could get a single stick of 8 GB of RAM, would only run in single channel mode, so 64 - bit of bandwidth. Keep in mind that it uses DDR3L, so it'll be 1.35v, obtaining 1.5V RAM will not work. Take a look at the Impact of HyperX. 1600 MHz will be fine.

    Upgrade SSD? should be easy.
    Take a look for a kit of HyperX Savage reduction. It comes with an SSD, caddy of disk (for the old HARD disk) and cloning of 2.5 software ".

    Keep in mind that while a laptop computer based skylake, is a class of U i3, so there is no computing power much at all. the 15W TDP says it all. You can run a CPU as fast as you want, but the current absorbed don't lie not. My i5 - 3230 m runs at 35W and 2.6 GHz. There is a big jump from 15W and 2.1 GHz

  • Satellite Pro A100-229 - Incompatible of CRUCIAL memory

    Does anyone know what memory modules will work in my Satellite Pro series please?

    Or y at - it anyway I can make these modules work please?

    Hello

    If the modules are not compatible so you won't get work

  • Satellite Pro A100: Upgrading RAM void my warranty?

    I just bought a Toshiba Satellite Pro A100 today and, having only 256mbRAM I want to update my 512 RAM. If I discover the RAM slots and replace it, this will void my warranty?

    Thank you

    (NB several opinions would be appreciated)

    Hello

    You warranty still valid. You can upgrade the memory without any problems, but you must use the right modules and supported.
    As far as I know, these modules are compatible:
    DDR2-533 256 MB (PA3389U - 2M 25)
    512 MB DDR2-533 PA3412U - 2 M (51)
    1 GB OF DDR2-533 (PA3411U-2M1G)

    But are you sure you want to upgrade the memory of 512 MB?
    AFAIK all already shipped with 512 MB.

  • Satellite Pro A100 - 244 PSAAC - RAM upgrade Question

    Hello everyone,

    I have Satellite Pro A100 - 244 (PSAAC) comes with standard RAM "512 (533 MHz)" and I replaced it with 1 GB (533 MHz)

    And now, I want to add 2 GB of RAM in the other slot but I couldn't find RAM 2 GB with bus (533 MHz), I can find only the Rams with (667 MHz)

    I just want to know if it is acceptable to add these two RAMS with these different bus "1 GB (533 MHz) with 2 GB (667 MHz).

    Please let me know if there a danger or cause any problem or if the computer would decrease performance

    Looking forward to your help

    Best regards
    Sammy

    667 MHz * should * work at 533 MHz, but his has not guaranteed to work, you will need to test it before buying the memory.

    Memory usually has a SPD table that tells the BIOS which timings to use at different speeds, but even if the SPD has a 533 MHz on the table, there may always be a compatibility problem.

  • Satellite Pro A100 - it does not recognize 4 GB of RAM

    Hello
    today I purchased two 2 GB RAM Corsair DIMMS (DDR2 - 667 mhz) for my Satellite Pro A100.

    After that I updated the BIOS it detected the 4 GB of RAM, but the balance of RAM on the boot prompt checks only 3 GB of RAM. So I can use only 3 GB of RAM (I use ubuntu 64 as an operating system). When I try to RAM into another laptop, it works perfectly. A memtest86 + says check: no error. When I plug in a dimm in the laptop, it is correctly detected as a 2 GB dimm module (tested two DIMMs into the two slots on motherboard)

    Anyone else seen this behavior? For me, it looks like a limitation or a bug in the version of the BIOS.

    (The processor supports 64-bit (core2duo t5500))

    Hello

    What Satellite Pro A100 you have exactly?
    As far as I know that some models can only be upgraded to 2 GB of RAM.

    It's really not easy to say what is the reason for this because I m confused on the subject of what the BIOS recognize the 4 GB of RAM, but not the boot prompt.
    I'm not sure that maybe the modules are not compatible with your laptop. You can test other modules?
