Skimpy internal memory: Could this be just a marketing scheme to sell a memory stick "accessory""?

I don't know of anyone that relies solely on a digital camera's internal memory.

the board has physical room for two of these. the pc originally had 512 that took up half the space . I installed a 1GB in one half. It worked. then I bought this amazon and installed it in the other half when I kept getting virtual memeory prompts again afte a few months. To noeffect, except that the pc shows it as having two GB installed. I de-installed wverything that eats RAM and I still can't go ten minutes past strtup without geting virtual memory message . I check the capacity and it stil shows plenty, under sixty percent in use when the messge pops up.

You have the wrong memory stick.or its not comparable with the second stick that's in there or its in the wrong slot, odds are its not comparable..

I don't think there's a way to replace the memory on the USB device without cracking it open. I believe the idea was just to have a convenient last ditch storage device for a Powerpoint or whatever without having to carry around an extra thumb drive.

Has anybody tried a single 4GB stick of RAM in this? I'm wondering if it would work.

Yea I have read in multiple sources that it is 1 RAM slot filled with a 1 gig stick that you remove and replace with the $20 buck 2 gig stick. I'm curious how cheap these 1 gig sticks are going to go for sale for and if there is any thing a computer builder/hacker could do with all the extra EEE 1 gig sticks out there. I'm still curious why they couldn't just cost the extra $20 and come maxed out.

A tiny internal memory To avoid frustration, buy a suitable memory card - they are quite affordable these days.

A lot of the memory products have incorrect photos attached to them on Amazon. Lots of S)-DIMM's (2.625" long) have photos of U-DIM's (5.25" long). Buy at your peril!

It can't index that much information. I stick to no more than a 128 gig usb sticks.

Definitely SODIMM. I also ordered the wrong memory based on the false description. Fortunately, I was able to return it and buy 4GB SODIMMs instead. Then again, even a quick glance at the picture would have shown the discrepancy so I guess I'm partially to blame. Sigh...

I don't know, I stopped using mine because it had like zero memory. Wasn't smart enough

The inbuilt memory i have never tried, but should not be too long. I've ordered the 64GB SD card with it, you will have a few hrs recoring with that. Inbuilt memroies are always just a few MB...Greg

No. I presume documents with lots of graphics can benefit from extra memory. I never had a need for it.

Found a thread on forums.xda-developer.com that mentions only 5GB of the internal 8GB Sandisk memory is accessible to user. Just blows my mind that 3GB (38%) of internal memory is for system use... and most functions are still a bit sluggish.

I added 4Gb to bring my total up to 8gb. Don't think it would accommodate 8gb stick.

My guess is that it's the 4GB RAM that's slowing things down rather than the hard drive. And to upgrade to 8GB (the maximum it can take) means replacing the existing memory with a $50-$60 8GB stick, as there is only one memory slot inside (according to CNet review). It could probably also use (esp. when first purchased) a good cleaning out of extraneous memory-hogging apps that get auto-loaded at boot time.

I first said I don't know but I would suggest you contact ASUS for a positive Answer, I did use two Memory Sticks for the 8GIOG total.
