    I need to know the specs of the RAM in my M4400 and was hoping someone here could help me out? I know it has 4GB Ram, but how many actual Ram slots does it have and what speeds/specs Ram can be put in it? Basically, i want to upgrade from 4GB to 8GB to give my VM's better performance without slowing down my base OS (Windows 7 Ultimate x64). I don't know which Ram to choose on newegg.

    You need to get 2x4GB DDR2-800 (or 667 if it's cheaper).

    Because the speed doesn't make a difference in any real life situation as the RAM is never the system bottleneck. So, yes, it's just price.
