Hi:

 

Below is the link to the service manual for your notebook.

 

According to chapter 1 of the manual, your notebook has two memory slots and can support up to 2 x 4 GB of DDR2-800 memory.

 

The cost of 4 GB DDR2 memory chips will most likely be very expensive unless you can find some in used but tested and working condition.
