Question

D. impossible to do.

Answer 1

if you buy the correct type (DDR or DDR2) of ram with the correct size and speed (these specs are mentioned in the manual) then it's plug and play.

Answer 2

Depending on the laptop, all of these statements are true.
Most manufacturers use a standard memory device. As long as the access speed is matched it works.
Memory is usually plug and play, The power-on self test scans the memory.
Some laptops use nonstandard sockets for memory. These will require memory modules from the manufacturer, just for that brand and model.
Some older Toshiba laptops used a PC card for adding memory.
And of course there are a few, that can't have any memory added or upgraded.

Answer 3

actually upgrading ram on a pc is common, on maximum pc it rather is a controversy of unscrewing a pair of screws to get to the ram, eliminate them placed new ones in, and changing covers and screws. Get your manufacturers, e book or seek the information superhighway on your make and form with the word "specs" (no costs) so which you would understand the place your memory is located. I even have replaced, memory, and confusing drives conveniently and a hundred% sucess.

Answer 4

Is this a real hw question? Cause its an odd one.

Anyways, most notebooks have on slot that can easily be accessed to upgrade, the other slot usually is dificult to get to and requires disasembling the entire notebook.
