WTF MAN! - 700m Question

[JRock]

They say it has 2 SODIMM Banks... I see only 1 and I took the whole fvcking thing apart! Where the hell is it?

The other one is underneath the stick of memory that's inserted into it.

Under the keyboard

It's actually under the keyboard I believe. Look at the anandtech review.

Yep, it's under the keyboard. I ordered one of these, and then cancelled my order.

don't you just open the cover and stick in the ram?

took me less that 5 minutes to do it on my 700m

EDIT: also try the notebook forum. Lots of 700m owner's there

1 - Under the keyboard requiring you to remove it (no biggie)
2 - At the bottom accessible by opening two small screws

 

[JRock]

That's some sh*t... I mean I know they are trying to save space but there are so many better places to put it... I don't really care but it was just annoying...

2GB in that Bitch now... and my 9300 that im on now

Just like the PowerBook models, the extra SoDIMM slot is under the keyboard. Though the PowerBooks also allow the keyboard to be removed very easily.

That's very common with thin laptops. Same with IBM t40.

You have to move the keylogger out of the way.

 

[RossMAN]

My 700m is running 1.25GB nicely
