I have a Thinkpad R5x, looking to do a RAM upgrade. I would like to know if anyone seeing this has experance adding un offiacal RAM to there thinpad, and any compaitbiy issuies they might have run into

Question 2, and one maybe more could help me with. I currently have one 512mb SODIMM. Should I

a) get another 512 (needs to match for performance/compatibility ?)
b) get a 1 gig and run them both (more memory= better performance ?)
c) get a 1 gig and take out the 512 (compatibilty?)

Any input would be welcome, thank you for your time.
