Ok, 256 MB inside + 512 MB (or 1 GB) in the "external" slot. About the
266 or 333 MHz type it depends on your machine. I'll need the 333 MHz
type, but i own a Travelmate 8005 so i don't know if it fits with yours.
You can try with dmidecode package, it will tell you under the Memory
device section.


Keep in mind that the speed of RAM for your laptop will be limited by your
machines FSB speed. So if your motherboard's FSB supports 100-Mhz i.e.
PC1600 i.e. 200 Mhz, then even if you put a module of 333 Mhz it would be
functioning at the speed of 200 Mhz only.

I did all this find out while upgrading RAM on my laptop. I ended up
preparing a document for all this.
