Satellite M50-108: Ram upgrade from 512MB to 1GB

My Laptop model is a M50-108! But i cant see info about this model anywhere, what kind of memory would be best to add to my computer? (512 MB one )!

Hi,
you surely mean the type because to ask which size would be funny. :) (more is always better)
The right type for that machine is DDR333 and the maximum amount of RAM you can install is 2GB (2 x 1GB memory module).
It does not matter which manufacturer but I can tell you from my experience that a well known brand (kingston, crucial, samsung) is always better then a no name. And try to use two absolutely similar modules because of performance and compatibility reasons.
Hope I could help.

SATELLITE C55D-B5212 Ram Upgrade?

I really would like to know if I can upgrade this specific model of my laptop. I want to put more ram into my system (8 or up to 16 if possible). So if someone could get back to me on this, it would really help. And if anyone knows if Toshiba or a basic company like Best Buy would do the upgrade for me, that would also help a lot!

I want to upgrade my Toshiba Satellite M100-222 RAM to maximum. My laptop supports 4 GB of RAM.
Laptop's current RAM is factory default I bought my laptop with 1 GB RAM:
2x Hynix HYMP564S64BP6-C4 - 512 MB (DDR2-533, 266 MHz)
Please advise... whether to purchase these memory modules:

Satellite L670D won't upgrade from 6gb to 8gb RAM

When I first got my L670 I upgraded the RAM to 6gb by adding a 4gb module to the supplied 2gb. Everything has worked well for a year., but now I want to upgrade to the maximum 8gb. I bought another 4gb module to replace the 2gb.
However, the machine will not even address the BIOS unless the 2gb module is in the first bay. It will work as a 6gb machine with either 4gb module, and as a 2gb machine, but will not accept either of the 4 gb modules in the first bay or both 4gb modules together.
Anyone got any ideas about this?

According notebook specification you can use 4GB DDR3-1066 with part number PA3677U-1M4G.

Win2k3 RAM upgradation from 4GB to 16GB

Hi,
Can we upgrade RAM from 4GB to 16GB in windows 2003 SP2 (32 bit) standard edition, by enabling PAE?
This is VM and hosted on 4.1 esxi.

See the link below but basically no. If your running 2003 SP2 Standard then its only 4GB limit. If your on Server 2003 Enterprise then you can go higher.

RAM Upgrade from 2GB to 4GB -- Lots of questions...

I have a MacPro with the two dual core processors. It has 2GB of RAM in the form of four 512GB 667MHz RAM chips.
I want to double my RAM to 4GB, and I wonder what's the best way to do that?
If I double the existing RAM, that would mean 4 more 512GB RAM chips, all running at 667MHz. That would use ALL my chip slots, so that's the most RAM I'd be able to have in that configuration.
So.. why not pull ALL the 512s and replace them with, say, 2 2GB chips? If I do that, could I not also upgrade to 800MHz chips? Is there any reason that 800 MHz chips would be incompatible with my MacPro?
I'm a bit skittish about hardware upgrades, so if anybody's got any suggestions for a resource that can guide me through the process, that would be helpful, too. I'm always afraid I'm gonna bust a pin somewhere and destroy the computer.
Thanks,
--PS

4gb of ram isn't really that much. you can add four 512 but you may want more ram at a later time. if you are sure you won't, then go for it. RAM is best adding in groups of 4, but has to be in sets of 2. I would add four 1gb of ram. There are diagrams you can search out to show how to most effectively and properly install it. That would give you 6 gb and that's a pretty decent number for most people. You could add two 2gb. It's not the most efficient method and would not sqeeze every bit of speed from the ram but it would leave two slots open for further upgrading if you so wished. If you aren't a Photoshop person or Final Cut Pro or other heavy user, and just use one application at a time, 4gb is probably adequate. RAM is inexpensive enough for most people with a macpro that going for four x 1gb and moving to 6 is my recommendation. If you do use two x2gb there is no need to remove the 512s other than to possibly move them. dunno about the 800MHz chips. I think you can use them but don't need them and won't make use of the added speed. I'd use all of the same type of RAM just to be cautious.

Satellite A110-174 - RAM upgrade questions

Hi,
I have a Satellite A110-174
I want to buy some RAM module (it uses ddr2 ram, 533 MHz), but it seems impossible to found them.
I can only find 800 or higher frequencies.
Can I use them or they will give me problems / incompatibilities?
Can I mount 1 module or it's necessary to buy 2 modules?
Will the motherboard read up to 4Gb or it is necessary a Bios update?
Thank you

Satellite A110-174 can be upgraded up to 4GB RAM.
In order to use a RAM dual channel feature, two modules have to be used.
This means 2GB RAM module in each slot.
The 4GB RAM limitation is caused by Mobile Intel 945GM Express chipset
http://ark.intel.com/de/products/27857 as well as the Intel Core CPU T1350 http://ark.intel.com/de/products/27243
The CPU supports the 533Mhz FSB (front side bus) and the RAM modules will work max at 533Mhz.
So you should use the DDR2-533 modules
But sometimes you should be able to use the DDR2-667Mhz modules. In such case the 667Mhz module speed will be clocked down to 533Mhz

Satellite C55-B5299 RAM Upgrade

Hello all, I just bought a new Toshiba Satellite C55-B5299 and I would like to increase its RAM for better performance. On a few review sites, however, it is stated that the user is not able to upgrade the RAM in this laptop. So, is it possible to upgrade the RAM? If so, what is the maximum RAM it can hold, should I not exceed 1333 MHz, and is there any particular brand that would be best to use? Thank you!

i would like to add a optical drive I need the part number
Assuming you have the model in the Subject...
Satellite C55-B5299 (PSCMLU-02801M)
Satellite C50-BBT2N11 (PSCMLU-03801F)
That second computer (in the same part-number family as yours) can be ordered with the optical drive. Try asking for the part number of the drive in that model.
National Parts Depot 800-524-8338
Spare Parts Warehouse 877-253-8898
PS These models are too new to be listed on the website. It would take a phone call.

Ram upgrade from 8gb (1333 mhz)

Hi,
Hope you all are doing good
I plan to upgrade my ram to 16 gb from the current 8gb (DDR3 1333 MHz)
However could you please help me with the following
1) Will any ram do or do i need to buy mac specific ram. for example corsair sells normal ram and ram specifically for macs at a premium.
2) Can i use a 1600 MHz ram instead of a 1333 MHz ram as i getting it cheaper without doing any long term damage to my mac other than the speed getting reduced to 1333 MHz
3) which one is better Crucial or G skill as im unable to buy crucial as im on a vacation and crucial is not available
Hope you have a great weekend
Current Os ( Mountan lion)
System Specifications
Macbook PRO Late 2011 (15 inch md318ll/a )
Processor : I7 2.2GHz
Ram : 8gb (crucial)
hard drive : 256 gb (Samsung Evo SSD)

Stick with Crucial or macsales.com (OWC), and get the RAM they recommend. Faster RAM may work, and you may also end up with kernel panics. G. Skill might work, but pretty much all of us here will tell you what I just did.

RAM upgrade from 1gig to 2gig for 1.83 Mac Mini Core 2 duo

I have the new 1.83 gig mac mini and attempting to upgrade ram. Once opened, the ram slots are not easily available, unlike the older versions where you just snap it when the cover is removed. Is there any video instructions out there? The one I found on some threads is for the older versions. Thanks

it is fairly simple once you have the case open there is 4 screws take them out to remove the cd drive and it flips up and back then u will see the ram.
two things to remeber the fan cable in the front (Small black looks like a jumper with wires) make sure to put that back on.
and
i disconnected the wifi antenna on accident had to open the case back up and snap it back on the airport card.
I have two intel minis and picked up a 2x2 gig set and put one in each computer 2.5gb in both now. both done in less then an hr

Satellite A110-195 - Ram upgrade questions

Hello
I have Toshiba Satellite A110-195
My questions are:
1)Whats the maximum size of ram per slot,1gb or 2gb?
I have 2 rams on my laptop right now 512 MB each.Am I able to replace one of them with a 2gb ram?
2)Right now on my laptop I have DDR2[PC2-4300] rams.
Any DDR2 SoDimm ram will work?
Or the ram must be DDR2 and exactly PC2-4300.

http://ark.intel.com/products/27857/Intel-82945GM-Graphics-and-Memory-Controller
According to Intel page, the chipset handles max 4GB RAM.
This means that you can use 2 x 2GB RAM or one 4GB RAM module.
The chipset supports DDR2-400 / DDR2-533 / DDR2-667 RAM modules

I have a MacbookPro Mid 2010 model. I had purchased a ram upgrade (from 4g to 8g) about a year ago. Worked fine, recently i purchased literally the same exact ram but 16g and i get the Grey Screen. My system checks out to be compatible with 16g ram.

Satellite M100-165 PSMA1E - Upgrade from XP Pro to Win7 Ultimate problem

During installation Win7 Ultimate (Eng) with current XP Pro the system shows en error (something like couldn't find a certain file) and the installation stops.
In the beginning of the installation I delete all the partitions and create new ones.
At the same time Win7 creates it's own partition with the size of 100MB.
Using the same disk I installed Win7 on Compaq Presario CQ60 with no problems. Also instead of XP Pro.
What could be a problem?
Do I need to download and use any special software from Toshiba?
Currently I just recovered XP Pro using Acronis Universal restore from an external USB drive.
I will really appreciate for your help.

Thanks a lot for your reply guys!
I've also checked all the possible knowledge bases before posting my message.
Yes, Win 7 disk is original, it's 32-bit version and, as I already mentioned, I installed it on my HP CQ60 with no problems...
It's also a pretty old laptop, but i didn't even need to install prepared drivers. Win7 did everything.
The only difference in my Toshiba now is that i've upgraged 80GB hard drive to SeaGate 320GB. Under XP Pro it works perfectly. But again, it shouldn't be a problem.
Ok. I've tried to install win7 three times already, but i will follow your advice and will set BIOS to default.
I will inform you about the results.
The case is very strange.
Thanks.

2GB RAM Upgrade from Crucial

Crucial is offering 2GB of mem at $97 for my Macbook and I was wondering if anyone out there had any suggestions or comments about their module and whether or not it was worth it.
http://www.crucial.com/store/mpartspecs.aspx?mtbpoid=6C41F532A5CA7304

I have that same stuff - it worked great in my old 2GHz Core Duo and it works great in my new 2.16GHz Core 2 Duo. Great price too

RAM Upgrade on Satellite L30-11D

My brother has a Satellite L30-11D and he has bought an additional 2GB RAM to upgrade from 512MB.
HE has sent me an email - extract below, but does not get regular access to Internet and therefore no time to post this.
My laptop had 512 MB ram and I was told by Toshiba etc that it could be upgraded to 2 GB. I obtained 2 x 1 GB cards installed them.
The problem is that if I remove the 512 MB card the laptop doesn't see the GB cards at all, so I put the 512 card back in and that was OK, then I put a 1GB card in and that worked OK, thinking it might be a dud card I triedthe other card plus the 512 and that works.
Also if I put either one of the GB cards on their own in it works.
According to Toshiba the computer can be upgraded to 2 GB RAM - so what am I doing wrong.
Any ideas would be appreciated."

Hi
I googled and found this Satellite L30-11D specification page:
http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=UK&com.broadvis ion.session.new=Yes&PRODUCT_ID=128130
According to this page the Sat L30-11D can be upgraded to 2GB RAM (2 x 1GB)
You should use the 200pin DDR2 RAM (533 MHz) modules.
I think the notebook does not recognize the 2GB RAM due to the compatibility issues You should try RAM modules from another manufacturer. Maybe Kingston would be ok.
