I would like to ask my mother has a Simens laptop PI1505 and the question is if I can put a 4GB RAM memory card in the laptop or if that does not pack? Currently I'm a 2GB Ram in it. Or is it possible to build a larger hard drive so that it runs faster?
Also hope your help
Then prefer the memory, although DDr is outdated maximally but ne larger hard drive will hardly solve your problems. Maybe SSD.
And a 4GB DDr2 Ram do you think you would be ok? I have only one slot
If necessary, did you have only 2 in it before?
No before was 1Gb in it and 1GB on the plate already
OK, oh well. But he is only a little faster now, but should be noticeable.
OK thanks
4gb memory will not bring any increased performance with such age-old hardware.
I found that for this notebook:
http://www.notebookreview.com/notebookreview/fujitsu-siemens-amilo-pi-1536-review-pics-specs/
This Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo PI 1505 can seemingly only manage a maximum of 3GB Ram (a very strange value…).
However, I can't say if 2 or 3 ram slots would be available. There it means to unscrew and look.
The CPU (Core2Duo T2300 from 2006) is about at the performance level of a Pentium 4 (3.2GHz) from 2005.
The built-in "ATI Radeon Mobility X 1400 (128MB)" additionally twists up to 512MB from the main memory ("Hypermemory"). 3GB Ram really makes sense.
Games like Unreal 1, HalfLife 1 and Call of Duty 1 + 2 should still be running on it. As well as 2D adventure, various 2D role-playing games and the like.
A small SSD would be possible at the internal SATA connection (120GB ~ 25 euro, 250GB ~ 50 euro).
I suppose, it is a Sata1 connection (=> max about 130MB / s).
The high access speed is still fully available. The notebook boots and reacts much faster. (I had successfully run a Sata3 SSD on my P4 (3.2GHz) with Sata1.)
Maybe the Speccy tool can find out more hardware details:

First of all, what exactly Ram is needed and how many slots exist.
That would be in any case only a "lover project" for nostalgics.
I would perhaps install a small Linux (64bit) on it and a Win7 (32bit) as a secondary system. And from January 2020, I would completely deny Win7 the Internet access.
Stop! Stop! I wrote nonsense!
I found the wrong notebook and mistakenly used its data.
I have now discovered the manual for the right model (pi 1505) and must therefore correct myself significantly:
https://www.manualslib.com/manual/54941/Fujitsu-Amilo-Pi-1505.html
The maximum capacity of the main memory is 2GB (=> 2x1GB).
There were 3 different CPUs installed and the Graka is an "Intel Media Accelerator 950" with 128MB (shared memory), so completely diverted from the main memory.
https://www.notebookcheck.com/...851.0.html
https://www.intel.com/...phics.html
This graka is so much weaker than the supposed Radeon X1400! Unfortunately, I have not found suitable benchmarks to better estimate this.
What I wrote about SSD, however, persists (Sata1 connection).
And likewise the topic Linux (64bit) and Win7 (32bit) remains. Even if a WinXP (32) should probably be a little nimble. But that's not what you're allowed to do on the internet right now.
In spite of everything, the correct hardware can be read out with the tool Speccy.
Especially the CPU is still unknown, because 3 models were installed different.
So… This correction was important to me.
