R830 - What kind of RAM do I need

Hi All,
Toshiba telephone support was unable to help me so I turn to you.
I have a Portege R830 (Model: PT320C-01J018) which has 4GB of RAM.
I assume this is commonly referred to as Portege R830-01J model? (I hope I'm right otherwise my model number simply does not exist)
I am running 64bit Win7 and would like to add another 4GB, as I wish to run VMWare. However I simply cannot figure out what kind of RAM I need to buy. The technical specs.
Crucial RAM website says I need DDR3 1600 PC3-12800
Kingston RAM website says I need DDR3 1333 PC3-10600
An ad on Ebay says I need DDR3 1333 PC3-10600 (same as what Kingston recommends)
I opened up the slot for the RAM but could see no markings that were helpful.
If anyone out there can shed some light on this I'd really appreciate it! Thanks.

Portege R830 PT320C-01J018
We support US computers at this site. Everything for that Canadian model is here.
According to the spec above, Toshiba offers this RAM.
PA3918U-1M2G DDR3-1333 2GB Memory Module
PA3918U-1M4G DDR3-1333 4GB Memory Module

How can I know what kind of RAM my Qosmio G30-161 has?

I want to add more ram to my qosmio G30-161. I could not find any info about what kind of ram or max ram that can be added from the manual. I read once but do not remember where that it is max 4G with 2g each ..DDR2 .
I use windows media center as operating system- 32b.
my question is where you can find the informations about the extension of memory ? so that i can buy the right ram

Hello
If you want to pick up info about compatible high quality Ram modules I can recommend you to visit Kingston page. The full info about Rams for Qosmio G30-161 you can find HERE .

What kind of RAM do you use with your K7D Master-L? (esp. unbuff)

I was windering what kind of RAM people sue with their K7D Master-L mobos. I recently got one with a 512 stick of Mushkiin Level 2 CAS222 RAM however I'm having boot problem. I'm going to test registered RAM soon to see if that is the problem.
Have people had success with unbuffered RAM? I really want to use Mushkin or Corsair XMS RAM for their high performance and overclockability, but if I can't oh well
-Matt

Use registered. I have used kingston and infineon working fine ( besides some funny things at some point)
Senior people will tell you there isn't any choice...

What kind of RAM for a MacBook?

I bought the Intel Core Duo 2.0GHz MacBook and I'm wondering what kind of RAM this computer uses? It's the model preceding the current MacBook.

Both MacBook models use the same, if you want to make sure you are getting compatible RAM, buy from a company that guarantees mac compatibility like
http://www.crucial.com
http://www.macsales.com
Both of them have memory advisors for Apple computers on their site.

What kind of Ram do I need for my Mac?

Hello
I want to upgrade the speed of my mac by adding a 2GB stick of ram. But what kind of ram do i need? Would this work for my Mac (Mid 2011 21.5 inch) http://www.amazon.co.uk/Crucial-PC3-10600-Desktop-Upgrade-240-pin/dp/B001NA25VS/ ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1390290563&sr=8-1&keywords=2gb+ram?

Macs are very, VERY picky about the RAM specs they need.
That RAM is the wrong pin count and probably for PCs and not a Mac
Here is the proper RAM spec for your year and model.
32 GB (Actual) 16 GB (Apple)
Memory Slots
4 - 204-pin PC3-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM
Correct and reliable Mac RAM can be purchased from online Mac RAM sources Crucial memory or OWC (macsales.com).

Hi Alvi
Your Late 2006 iMac supports 3GB of PC2-5300 667MHz ram, see the Memory Specifications in the link below:

Also here are the Technical Spec's for your iMac:

I don't know what kind of ram memory to buy for my macbook

the specs for my macbook:
Hardware Overview:
Model Name: MacBook
Model Identifier: MacBook1,1
Processor Name: Intel Core Duo
Processor Speed: 2 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 2 MB
Memory: 512 MB
Bus Speed: 667 MHz
Boot ROM Version: MB11.0061.B03
SMC Version (system): 1.4f12
Serial Number (system):
Sudden Motion Sensor:
State: Enabled
I'm wanting to upgrade my memory (I currently have 512 mb, WAY too slow for what I'm using it for. Apparently I have 2 sticks of 256 mb. I'm wanting to upgrade to 2gb, or possible even 4gb if possible. I don't know where I can buy some ram. Apparently there is a specific kind of ram that I need to get, and I don't know what it is, or where to get it. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
P.S. I'm going to have the apple store install it for me. I may change my mind though, seeming as a lot of people are saying that it is easy.

Is there a reason that it is limited to 2GB?
The computer was only designed for 2GB and won't start up if more is installed.

What kind of RAM I need for my Satellite A135-S4527?

I have a Toshiba Satellite A135-S4527. It came with 1GB RAM (DDR2 SDRAM). I'd like to upgrade it to 2... Just wondering if anyone knows what kind/brand of RAM is installed from the factory, and if it's installed as 2x512 or 1x1024.
Thanks.

The specification of your notebook model is not known to me but if you want to upgrade RAM check please this Kingston page .

What kind of RAM do I need?

I'm looking to upgrade my iMac G4 1GHz so it will run leopard.
Right now it has only the RAM it came with:
1 slot with 256MB DDR SDRAM PC2700U-25330.
I have no idea what any of this means, and I'm just trying to get to 512MB.
When I look for memory, what should it say so I know it will be compatible?
Thanks!

OWC's web site has a feature where you can list upgrade by Mac model. Go here
http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/apple/memory/
and select your exact iMac type. I would get a 1GB module to give you 1.25GB total. Your iMac has two memory slots. The slot on top comes with a 256mb module; it is not user accessible (at least not easily). The slot on the bottom is easily accessible. You can get the instructions here
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=75317
and other online sources. There are probably YouTube videos too.
The bottom slot can hold up to 1GB.

What kind of Ram do I need to buy

I have a Quad Core 2.8ghz Mac Pro with 6gb of Ram. I am constantly having problems rendering video and stuff because of the low memory. I want to upgrade and add more. Here are some of the specs, I searched online but I couldn't narrow down what I needed and don't want to waste money on the wrong stuff.
Processor: 2 x 2.8 Quad-Core Intel Xeon
Memory: 6 GB 800 MHz DDR2 FB-DIMM
and then in the memory section I have
2 2GB & 2 1GB DDR2 FB-Dimm 800MHz sticks listed
I have 4 empty slots.
What should I buy to put in the empty slots? Any links you could throw would be helpful too.
Thanks.

What kind of RAM is compatible for my MacBook

I have a black MacBook 2.0 ghz 1 year old.
I want to upgrade from 1gb to 2gb of RAM.
What brand should I buy? (Apple's is too expensive)

$50 (give or take $5) seems to be a common price point right now for 2x1GB of PC2-5300 SODIMMS. I saw several different brands (Patriot for example) at about that price at Fry's Electronics. The price seems to have gone up $5 this week, but that's the volatility of DRAM prices.
Crucial from Micron Technology is pretty highly recommended. I've bought through Crucial.com, but often the prices are better through other retailers like Newegg. Here are a few options from Crucial and Newegg. Crucial.com will give you a compatibility guarantee and free shipping if you order specifically for your machine. They collect sales tax in California. Right now they've got the memory you need (first link) for $51.99+tax (if collected).

FCP X Lags What kind of Ram?

Now I know i already asked about the graphics card and I noticed my ram was not at maximum potential and watned to know if all ram is created equal?
does one ram work better than the other?
Final Cut pro x lags and I wanted to know how to make it go faster.
Here is the stats on my early 2009 Mac Pro:
Processor 2.66 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
Memory 16 GB 1066 MHz DDR3 ECC
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 512 MB
Software OS X 10.8.2 (12C60)
Here is a graphcs card I was thinking about and not sure if it is compatible with my type of mac pro.
AMD (ATI) Radeon HD 6750M graphics card
i want it to run as smooth as possible.
Let me know if there is more I can do besides just updating the graphics card.
Really I dont know much about hardware compatibility and would like some advice if possible. Thank you.

Chubb... You definately need to be using PROXY versions. Select preferences , playback , create /use proxy. None of my footage will play without jitter using optimized . Proxy is just a lower grade version specifically made for editing. I am 99% sure this will work for you. In project preferences , you can create a proxy copy there.
You may then see some things go off line. Thats only if there is no proxy copys of them . Ignore ( or create for all . ) When exporting or putting to Dvd etc , Change your preferences back to Optimised or original media for high quality output ( or it will use the low grade proxy !!! )
Let me know if this workd for you.Please

How can I tell which kind of RAM is correct for my iMac G5?

How can I tell what kind of RAM chips are correct for my iMac G5? It has two slots and can take up to 1 Gb each slot. I would like to get Newegg chips, and want to make sure I order the correct ones.
Also, do you know a website where I can find out how to install them?

That information is in your computer's user manual. If you no longer have one then you can download it at support.apple.com/manuals/. Or you can visit DataMem where they have a Mac chart of which products are needed for different Mac models.

What kind of memory do I have

Hello, I've been trying to figure out what kind of RAM do I have in a computer (because I'm not sure if it's DDR2 or DDR1), so that when I purchase an upgrade, i will be able to use it.

+: Is it true that if 1 RAM is only 400MHz, and another one in the same PC with 800MHz, both only will only use 400MHz?

You could try lshw -short -C memory , dmidecode --type memory (this one gives a bit more info than --type 17), and dmidecode --type 2 (reports mobo model). But I wouldn't be surprised if these don't give you anything either.
You may just have to bite the bullet and crack open the case.
I can open the case, there is no problem with that (though most times it's not specified on the label)
From your commands I can't figure out what kind it is (though I know it's DDR2)
