I have a Thinkpad 600E and want to upgrade it's memory.
Currently i have the on-board 32MBs and two PC100 64MB SODIMMs = 160MBs 
total memory.
I understand that my Thinkpad will only work with single-density memory.

I have a chance to buy one or two PC133 SODIMMs each 128MBs.
The seller tells me that each 128MB SODIMM has a total of eight chips - four 
on each side.
A single-density 256MB SODIMM will have sixteen chips in total so does that 
scale down and mean that a 128MB module with eight chips is going to be 
single-density?

The seller has given me the SODIMMs part numbers and i've tried Googling on 
them to determine whether one or both are single-density. A search on the 
part numbers gives endless results with no way to sort through and find a 
page which may give me the required information.

The details that the seller has given me are:
PC133U-333-542
HYM71V16M635HCLT6-H AA
HYM71V16M635ALT6-H AA
128 MB Sync 133Mhz CL3
One module is a Hynix and the other a Hyundai.

What do people think?
Are these PC133 128MB modules likely to work in my Thinkpad 600E?

Thanks.

Martin.
