Laptop memory issues

[Hom3r]

Hi

At christmas I got a Toshiba Equium A60-155 laptop, I want to add either 512mb, or 1Gb of RAM.

The manual says it uses PC2100 200-pin SO-DIMMs

Searching the web some website when I type in the laptop details it calls up PC2700 version

They only difference I can see is speed PC2100 is 266MHz & PC2700 is 333MHz
There is about a £20 price difference between them.

Does this matter??

Thanks

The memory will run at the lower speed, so it won't make a difference, however it would be a waste to pay extra for memory that wont run at the speed it can.

the best way to decide is to check what speed the motherboard supports, if it only supports PC2100 then there is no point in paying the extra for 2700.
