This model can be upgraded to 4 Gb of RAM
(http://www.crucial.com/store/listparts.aspx?model=Satellite%
20A215-S4747 )

But the website issues a warning:

"How much memory your Windows OS will recognize depends on which version
of Windows you are running. 32-bit versions of Windows will see (and
utilize) only 3GB or 3.5GB. To utilize more memory, install a 64-bit
version of your OS."
