Toshiba Satellite 2405-S201 Memory Up...

Toshiba Satellite 2405-S201 Memory Upgrade

 First of all, computer repairs or upgrades have some limitations. It is limited on the specification or capability of the computer. Take the example of the Toshiba Satellite 2405-S201. This computer is design to run on the 256MB ram. At this time of computing where the internet and software are full of graphics and videos, the demand of a larger ram is needed. Now let's take a look at the Toshiba Satellite 2405-S201 laptop memory information which are as follows:

     

Original Memory	256MB, removable
Maximum Memory	512MB
Memory Slot	2 sockets
Memory Specs.	PC2100 DDR SODIUMMs
CPU Type	Intel Mobile Pentium 4 1.6GHz
Model Comments	400MHz FSB

    The Toshiba Satellite 2405-S201 laptop can only be upgraded up to a maximum of 512MB. Either add another 256MB PC2100 DDR SODIUMM 266MHz (since there are 2 sockets available) or replace the original 256MB to a 512MB PC2100 DDR SODIUMM 266MHz. Not all PCs can be upgraded into larger memory. It depends on the speed capacity of the processor and the motherboard where the most current bios date is 2002. In conclusion, the maximum amount of RAM the Toshiba Satellite 2405-S201 can handle is just 512MB.
