    So my new Samsung has 1 GB of RAM, but I was thinking of upgrading it (at least to 2 gigs, if not 3).
    I'm unsure however of what RAM I need. These are the specs:
    Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo T7100 - 1.8GHz (x2), 800MHz FSB, 2MB L2 Cache
    RAM: 1024MB DDR2

    I get confused with the number of pins etc.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    You need DDR-667 PC5300 200 pin SODIMM.

    I would suggest this 1GB or this 2GB from Crucial (prices include delivery) or you may want to get something from ebuyer. There's a really cheap 1GB module at the moment.
