Those are mono clips (not left/right channels of a stereo clip). I have never recorded anything in stereo. Should I be?

If you have room, you can add one gig stick of single-channel 400mhz RAM to your existing 2gigs of what I'm assuming are dual channel. (ddr2) Don't buy anything over 400mhz, as your current RAM is 400mhz and anything higher on the third stick will have to throttle down to your slowest speed RAM (400mhz).

I've got two of these Kingston 1 GB sticks in the computer right now:

The technical info says they are DDR SDRAM, and I looked to see what that means...I think it is the same as DDR1, unfortunately. So, if my 2 gigs *aren't* dual channel, what are the implications?

Also, you'll want to make sure that your current RAM, if dual channel, is plugged into the right slots. The dual channel slots on the mobo will be 2 greens I think, or a different color than black or white. That's where you plug your DDR2 RAM. If you don't, they won't operate in dual channel mode. Also, you can only have a pair of dual channel, so your third stick should be single channel (ddr1). If your mobo supports triple channeling (DDR3), you can get three 1-gig sticks DDR3 and plug them into their respective slots and really raise your performance, but that's only if your mobo supports it. You can find out just by looking at the RAM slots. If there are three colored slots and one black or white slot, it supports DDR3.

I didn't know all that about the slots. Thank you! Since my two sticks appear to be just DDR1 (DDR SDRAM), I'm guessing I should just buy one more 1 GB stick like them and put it in a slot...from what you said, the color won't matter if I'm using a DDR1 module.
My, this all gets rather complicated, doesn't it? You should charge us for your advice.
