380698 2005-08-13 07:50:00 Hi I have a TOSHIBA satellite 2590xDVD / 6.4 Laptop, Model Number pas259a-c.
I need to know if this system could take 256 Mb RAM, if so what type would be recommended?

380699 2005-08-13 08:13:00 Google says 192MB maximum, and that 64 is "non removeable", meaning you can fit one stick of 128 MB 144 pin SDRAM SODIMM package. PC 66 (66 MHz) speed.

Probably have to use 128 MB of PC 100 or PC133 speed as PC 66 would be hard to find now.
It *should* be compatable but trying is the only way to find out.

DSE have some 128 MB ($78) but its a clearance product, only available at some NZ stores. Are you in NZ?

380701 2005-08-15 07:40:00 Worked fine in a Toshiba that I once had.
The advantage of DSE is that if it's not compatable, you can take it back.
