Toshiba Laptop RAM Question

[trent]

I have a new Toshiba Satellite A75-S211 notebook. Before I purchased it, I told myself I would not settle for a slow machine. Though this does meet my requirements, (with a 3.2 GHz Pentium 4 processor, 512 Static Ram, and 60 GB Hard Driveg -- 14.5 gb of that is used at the moment), I wanted to know if I could add RAM to make it run faster?

I have two slots, so this also brings the question, would having one large RAM card (1024 mb) run significantly faster than two 512 mb cards?

I am not looking to game or even handle high quality imaging software. I am a college student that is just big on having a computer that is at its optimal performance.

if you have a spare slot then get a 1024 stick that coupled with your 512 will give you 1536 and will give you a significant speed boost in everyday computing. It should also help prevent any bottlenecks.
