Dell 1720 laptop memory upgrade

Crucial 4GB DDR2 PC2-5300 Unbuffered NON-ECC 1.8V 512Meg x 64
There is only one slot so I cannot use 2*2. Crucial's website says this is not compatible but sometimes you can stretch the envelope. Any advice?

As you said, it's not supported but sometimes you can get away with it. Worse case scenario you'll be able to send the new RAM back for a refund.

Go for it.

Thanks. I would use 2 * 2gb but I can only find one slot. Am I missing one?

There should be 2 slots side-by side. From what I can find online about the 1720 series it definitley should have 2 slots.
