    Hello,

    I have an old Toshiba Satellite M70 CL1 to which I'd like to add more RAM but I'm not sure which one fits and how many slots there are. Currently I have 512MB and according to CPU-Z it is DDR2 PC2-4300 (266 MHz) by Samsung. I see many items on ebay that are DDR2 PC2 but they are 4200 or 5300 so I'm not sure if they are compatible with my laptop. Also, CPU-Z is telling me that I have slot #4 used and #1,2, and 3 are empty but how can I be sure that there are a total of 4 slots and not 2 without opening the laptop? Thanks!
