The best thing you could do i find out which company's ram you are already using, and then go for the kill, but then however it really doesn't matter which one you chose. Just select the right speed and get that.
As far the writers are concered you can for the LG version or the latest one is from Samsung "octo edge". There's also versions of "Lite On" from "Lite Scribe" that allow you too print labels on your DVD's, but one sucker there, its only for the lite scribe dvd's. Man the best go for you is to go for the same speed RAM you already have and a samsung "octo edge". Burn'em hard.

Go for a good brand RAM, also choose the same speed as yours. That's very important!!
As far as DVD Writer is concerned, go for Sony DRU-820A. It's the best one. Don't
buy SamSung drives (real troubles!!).

i too was using a 128 mb Ram and then added 512mbs to it(both at 266MHz and same brand)only to find out that its a house of problems....the best u can do is take a 512mb ram at 333Mz if ur mobo supports. single mod is always better.....
