Memory upgrade
I'm looking for the fastest, highest capacity memory available for the Dell XPS 420, I think it's 8GB dual channel @ DDR2 800. Does anyone here know if the Crucial 2GB Ballistix would be completely compatible with the 420? What is DRR2 PC2-6400 mentioned in the product specs?

From the 420 manual:
Type : dual-channel 667 and 800-MHz DDR2
Memory connectors : four
Memory capacities : 512 MB, 1 GB, and 2 GB
Minimum memory : 1 GB
Maximum memory : 8 GB
NOTE: See Addressing Memory With 8-GB Configurations to verify the amount of memory available to the operating system. 8 GB memory is available only if you ordered an operating system that supports 64 bits.
Nice thing about crucial is if their wizard says it's compatible, it should be. But if it doesn't work in the system, they'll take it back. Here's what they say will work in the 420.
