Default What type of memory needed in Armada 1592?


I'm going to expand my laptop's memory and I'm not sure what memory chip
I need. Should I buy 128MB SODIMM EDO or 128MB SODIMM SDRAM? It's
written in Manual that my notebook (Armada 1592DT) requires EDO DRAM
but I've heard that some motherboards accept both types (EDO and
SDRAM). I'm not sure if SDRAM SODIMM will work.

I hope somebody will help me.

If the Compaq requires EDO memory, it will not work with SDRAM. These types
of memory may have the same form factor, so you should go to the
Hewlett-Packard memory configuration page or use one from the major vendors
such as Kingston, Crucial or Micron to make sure that you have the right
part number. You can then search for those part numbers with Google to get
the best prices.

Have to be Kingston. Crucial/Micron no longer carries EDO SODIMMs.
