Use ExpressCard/54 slot to expand RAM on netbook?
Hi all.
Perhaps this is not feasible, but I'd still like to know. So here goes... I bought a handy HP 2140 netbook. Its only drawback is that it's limited to 2GB RAM. I put a 256 GB SSD and installed ZRAM. It runs Linux Mint (Tricia) and it's not too bad... as long as I don't have too many things open. I think it would perform a better if it had 4 GB RAM. And it has a vacant ExpressCard slot, just sitting there... So suppose I could find such a gizmo, would it be possible to expand the physical RAM with a chip matrix mounted on an ExpressCard/54 slot or would the bandwidth cause it to bottleneck? Thanks. x13 |
