Why is there such a price differnt between the two when they seem to be very simular? Can I use the PC2-5300 in my laptop? I know the ram that is already there says it is PC2700if that helps.
Thanks alot! |
You should make sure that you have a slot available for the RAM. Your 1 GB of ram may be 2X512 MB of ram and may leave you with no slots available.
