TravelMate 3212NWXMi - Urgent RAM Upgradation...!!!
Respected nerds, techs, geeks and dear fellow members,
After months and years of waiting and speculation; I (poor soul who managed to purchase laptop first time in life) purchased one laptop few months back - TravelMate 3212NWXMi -
Presently by default the laptop came with -
1. 60 GB Hard Disk
2. 256 MB DDR II
Now I am finding that both of the above is posing as a terrible constraint in my use of laptop.
The laptop is terribly slowly and I find it very diffcult to use in reading word documents; PDFs etc...
I want to upgrade RAM as Maximum as possible...
From my preliminary analysis; what appears to me is that there may be two slots and maximum each slot can take 1 GB each...(I may be wrong)...
Few Questions in context of RAM Upgradation:
1. Is it wise to go for 1 GB each slot so that laptop is having 2 GB RAM...????
2. Does RAM of 2 GB will really boost speed of laptop like desktop...????
3. Which company (like transcend; hynix; zion etc etc; I am not sure) should i purchase these two RAM 1 GB each chip...????
4. Is there any compatibility issue of RAM with acer laptop model 3212NWXMi - I mean does it have to be of any particular specification....??? OR any RAM from any company would do...??? (This is MOST MOST IMPORTANT query...plz answer in detail).???
5. Does DDR (DDR 1) and DDR 11 really vary significantly in speed...???
Any help / advice / suggestion is more than welcome....Plz reply to my above questions...!!!!!
Best regards
