ASUS 1000HE Memory installation: Can someone please share with me why I should purchase the additional memory as opposed to just having what is already installed?

More memory means you can run more programs at once without the system getting sluggish (swapping to disk.) A memory upgrade from 1GB to 2GB on this system is a no-brainer, it's cheap and the user-experience benefits are simply worth doing.

Yes, you are missing thing - dual channel mode for the memory access. Just google for "Single memory vs dual channel". You may get in average 10-20% performance boost but if you decide to upgrade kit, you cant simply add new RAM, as both slots are used by kit.

I have the ASUS Eee PC 1005PEB-RBLU01S - I am also interested in upgrading the RAM - am interested in any all information - the good, the bad, the ugly....

I've updated my RAM and it was incredibly easy; most online places allow you to look up what memory you will need. I went from the standard 4GB to 10GB (I bought one 8GB stick). There are small screws on the bottom of the laptop (don't lose them!) and then you click out the old memory stick and pop in the new one.I found several videos online that were helpful also!

Thank you very much. I have discovered that the CT25664AC800, which Amazon lists, is the same module as CT934346, which the Crucial site lists as compatible with the ASUS 1000HE

i ordered a 2GB upgrade built by Hynix from Amazon today. I will update you with success/failure situation in a week or so...2GB DDR2 RAM PC6400 800MHz 200PIN SODIMM by Hynix...actually derives from OEMPCWorld...Hynix and Unifosa are two brands of ram purportedly supported by ASUS

I initially tried the Crucial 667MHZ RAM in my 1000he, and experienced a bunch of DLL initialization errors when shutting down. I believe they were tied to power management and overclocking. I replaced the memory with 800MHZ, no problems since.

Melder you might want to prepare as there is now a review on cnet.com where the reviewer states his unit comes with 1GB welded on and no way to update it to 2gb. Please post your findings when you get your unit and I hope the RAM is upgradeable!

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 :)

Did you manage to upgrade the RAM - I am holding on to my purchase for the same. I am comparing betn Aspire One 533 and 1015PED. Aspire one RAM upgrade is as nightmare as it was with eee pc 1008HA. Wondering what's the scene with this one.Please let us know.

Thank you for you reply.I guess I wasn't clear on what I was asking.Is the notebook upgradeable to 2 GB Ram? [it uses 200 pin 667,pc5300 memory] Is it hard or easy to open the case and get at the memory stick?Will it void my warranty? I'm afraid Crucial can't help me with these questions.

Also is the existing memory soldered in? can it be taken out and replaced with a new memory module? The specs say it supports up to 16GB, has anyone tried it yet?

What do they mean by updating BIOS. Is this the kind of setup you spend long frustrating hours on? Should I opt for a different brand/model (suggestions?)?

Seth, there too many to list. What is your goal in asking this? Do you have a motherboard that you want to get this memory for, or do you have this memory, and are trying to find a motherboard to put with it? If the latter, maybe you could specify your requirements... i.e. Price is most important, or performance, or best gaming for the buck, etc.

I could not answer that question. I did a build and new my motherboard. With that knowledge I consulted Asus's QVL (Qualified Vendor Lists) for my memory choice. I am by no means an expert of computer hardware. Thank you for asking. I choose this memory of the choices because of the ability to connect with the Corsair Link system, its cooling features and benefits, and matched pairing.

Disappointed that it has only 4gb memory capability, hope that its a miss print can anybody confirm that? Don't know what to do now, the price of ram always goes down and the need for it always seems to increase.
