    hello dear community,


    want to extend the menory of the Notebook:

    TOSHIBA SATELLITE L 20-112
    512 MB Arbeitsspeicher
    Intel Celeron M 360J 1.40GHz • 512MB • 80GB
    80 GB Festplatte
    Grafikkarte Shared Memory 128 MB

    we can extend it to 2.048 MB

    question: can i do this extensions with two chips of this

    Kingston 1GB 200-Pin DDR2 SO-DIMM Unbuffered DDR2 533 (PC2 4200) System Specific Memory for Toshiba Model KTT533D2/1G

    note: at the moment i run opensuse 13.1 on this notebook - it runs pretty well.
    i want to continue using linux on this (my third - and to confess - the weekest ) notebook.

    many many thanks for any and all help

    greetings

    Wow, that is a dinosaur!! (Circa 2005!)

    I used to have one very similar to yours - 512MB RAM was not enough from almost day one, so I upgraded it to 1GB of RAM.
