    Kingston, Corsair and Crucial make the best memory. The 1GB Corsair should work with you computer, just that it may underclock to 533MHz, if thats your FSB speed.

    it has Intel Core 2 Duo T7200 2.0GHz, Intel 945PM + ICH7M Chipset, FSB 667MHz

    so it should run at 667mhz

    thanks

    ToddF, be aware: Some notebooks are built for support only a few special RAM (brands). I would ask the merchant (if he is competent).

    If it is any comfort, my Samsung X60 is running happily with 1GB Corsair Value Select PC5300 plus 1GB Transcend PC4300. I've not personally had any RAM compatibility problems, either with this computer or the many I have owned previously.
