facts:
i have recently purchased a laptop. it is shipped with 2gb ram. the
maximum ram is 8gb.
i want to replace 2gb ram with 2 4gb ram modules.
i did ask once in chat about the ram, and a person has given me an
idea about what type of ram i should purchase.
the laptop manufacturer did not provided any cd or manual.
so far so good.
i want to buy only kingston [btw, you can also recommend or suggest to
a novice like me other than kingston].
reality:
there are no mdoules available in indian online shopping websites.
i have also contacted my laptop manufacturer through email & phone,
and they have no idea ??!!?

dilemma:
i have found kingston blue. i am not sure whether to purchase it.
the details of it can be found @ http://www.kingston.com/en/memory/hyperx/blu.
almost all the memory modules details contain the following info:
number of pins, synchronous, ecc or non-ecc, & voltage, steps [ for
eg. 2 gb = 2x1gb ].
questions:
without opening the laptop where can i find info about number of pins
& voltage capacity of my memory module ? [ i am scared to open laptop
].
is Error Correction Type is also known as ECC ?
is it safe to purchase kingston blue ?
if my present ram type is sodimm, should i purchase only sodimm or dimm ?
and is my pre-installed ram is ddr3 ?
where can we find details about whether is memory ddr, ddr2 or ddr3 ?
some memory modules contain SDRAM in item details, what is the
realtionship of SDRAM with ram ?
thank u for your patience & i am looking forward for your guidance & knowledge.
