Vista RAM

ddr memory?

I have a toshiba laptop with 256 mb RAM. I would like to add more memory. Is all ddr memory the same or do I need something specific? Thanks.

1. Some laptops use DDR some DDR2. I would go to the Crucial.com site to see what kind of RAM you have and search www.pricewatch.com for good deals.
2. Do a free scan at Crucial. It will tell you what you need: http://www.crucial.com/ wdw

5. 2x512mb ddr SODIMM should work great. DDR-400 or PC-3200 would be the easiest to find and cheaper too. In case your laptop supports a lower speed grade, ddr-400 would still work. Your laptop's BIOS will just automatically clock memory to default settings.
6. Go to Tigerdirect.com, they have a system scanner for ram memory too. Check they're laptop ram!
