    Just ordered a T510.

    1. Can I use my T500's power cord for T510? (I was hoping to find the part number for my T510 power cord, but the order details does not have it).

    2. My T510 comes with 4GB. I want to buy additional 4G memory.

    Are these two cards working with T510? If yes, what is your experience with them? Recommendation for other memory cards?

    1. yes, they use the same adapter.

    2. is your T510 comes with 1 stick of ram module? if yes, then getting a second stick would allow you to have 8 gigs total. If you don't know, then check your parts list.

    Thanks so much for your input. Glad to know that I can reuse my T500 adapter. I indeed have a few T500 power cord in home, office, etc.

    Regarding the memory, I already ordered 4GB (1 stick). I am trying to get another 4GB to have 8GB in total. My T510 comes with 64-bit Win7 Professional. Eventually I ordered this Crucilal memory card:
