    Hi guys, could anyone advice me how best to upgrade the ram from 2 to 4 GB.

    At the moment it has 2 x 1GB Zepto ram. Since it only has 2 slots i was thinking of getting 2 x 2GB.

    If someone done this move already, what's the performance like?

    Thanks in advance.

    Yes, you have to replace the existing RAM modules.

    32 bit Windows can address just over 3GB so you may want to try changing one module. You will only get the full benefit of 4GB if you have 64 bit Windows although two modules of the same size will run slightly faster than two modules of different size (asymmetric dual channel mode).
