Alright im thinking about upgrading my ram in my laptop i got for $30 its spec's are Intel P2 300Mhz 2x 128MB RAM = 256MB 20GB Hard Drive CD-ROM Drive Floppy Drive it runs windows xp fine expect it dogs if u try to muti-task such but other then that it works fine plays mechwarrior well and all anywayz it says its maxed out on ram from what i read online about this laptop i think it might handed 512 stick of ram but i do not know a think about laptops and i got this for school and back up incase my main computer fails. the laptop is a Toshiba Tecra 8000 any help will be nice.
That laptop is probably using PC-100 or PC-133 or even older. Those will be hard to find, and if you do find them it might be expensive. It might be using this kind of memory: RAM Installed Size: 64 MB / 256 MB (max) Technology: SDRAM - 66 MHz Form Factor: SO DIMM 144-PIN I got the specs from this website: Specs
Eh, I have that same laptop (hard to believe), it is far from ever coming back to use in my life. Even if you do find some RAM, and use the money to upgrade it, it still can't do much more then it already can (have you tried it in photoshop yet?, holy hell..) I used to manage playing Starcraft on it at one point. Sorry to not point out any RAM, but I thought I'd just advise that it is pointless to upgrade it.
i was thinking about it and deciede no sense i do not do gaming with it only doom and and stuff and it was brought to be used for school work im going to. i got the laptop for $30 with a lot of stuff for it and though of throwing 50 bucks in it to get a 512 stick of ram, after reading i dont think i will im happy as it is Merged Post: thx for the relpys
