Could anyone recommend good company for the RAM so it is reliable. Also is it hard to add more ram to a laptop. Done it many times on desktop but never have openned laptop before.
Any suggestions?
thanks
As others have said, it's almost always a plate on the bottom.

However, it's unlikely you have more than two slots, going from 2GB to 4GB probably means replacing what's in there. Don't price 2GB, price 4GB. At $100 you're probably not saving much doing it yourself.
