How much has this improved your memory?

Well, when I use the product regularly I tend to have quicker recall of information. Is I am comfortable to say that it does help me remember and to memorize a little better.

Memory can be upgraded in increments of four or eight gig chips of RAM. I replaced the two four gig chips with four eight gig chips maxing it out with thirty two. Machine has four memory chip slots.

Absolutely! And it's no problem. I love this thing! Just remember that it only has approx. 900 item memory so eventually you would have to delete something in the past.

No experience with this, but suggest you give it a try if you are attempting to improve writing/retrieval speeds.

I don't remember, I think that is in the specs. If I remember correctly it's probably more than you'll ever have on it.

update: my ram arrived today (thank you amazon prime!) and i'm running memtest on it right now. 16GB sure takes a while :-)

I bought NB505-N508BL 7 days back. Nice Piece! If you just want to surf internet, check emails, watch movie and listen to music there is no need to upgrade the memory. For better performance one can upgrade the memory to 2gig (DDR3 for new models and DDR2 for older ones). I upgraded to windows 7 pro and 2 gigs memory. My netbook works as good as a laptop. Note: Please don't order memory before you start using the machine, 1 GB DDR3 should be sufficient for basic users.

I downloaded the manual from asus. There's no mention of a memory upgrade.XP will around for a few more years. Too many computers have XP for it to go away any time soon.

I believe that you can upgrade the memory up to 16GB. My model came preinstalled with 6GB.

As memory serves me, the answer is yes, it worked. One of my friends had some trouble installing new software not knowing the memory requirements. After I checking I found she only had 500 MB installed. I logged onto Crucial and had them scan her computer for compatible memory. This, for the price point, was the bast choice for her. I installed the memory and shes been up and running without issues.

Performance increase with the RAM upgrade but, installing an SSD really did the trick. Well worth the small extra investment.

Depends on what you have in it already. It is relatively easy to do. The best site for dealing with memory add in my opinion is www.crucial.com. They can, if you let their site do it, scan your system and then recommend what is available for you. I have used generally 4GB on mine in the past and it does fine. It is an older machine and if you can stand less storage, you can improve performance by using an first generation SSD as well. Crucial can also just use Manufacturer and Model to list the available memory sets for you and you can pick what you want. I am currently using 2-2GB PC3 sets.

Yes!! I initially thought that with the ram it wouldn't make a difference but it does. I'm sorry but I'm unsure of what will help at this point. Its not extreamly slow but just slower than I would like.

I am not sure as I have not had added any numbers to the memory, sorry I just never do.

I can't actually answer your question (yet, going to install soon) however since the upgrade to 2gb (via two 1gb chips) is only around $30 here on amazon it seems silly not to upgrade.. also waiting on my memory so I'll post back with my experiences :)

If your manufacturer approved this size/type of memory then I will recommend it. Your computer, most likely, will run faster as it will not need to swap memory onto disk. For me moving from 1 to 4G (win XP) made a big difference

Yes there was a dramatic improvement over time and a moderate level after the first few days for me. My friend didn't feel the effects until about the end of his second month. But the benefits are very noticable. The price is cheap too.
