Can this laptop drive two external monitors?

I have a nx9420 and when it is in my docking station I can using two external monitors. It would be nice to have the functionality again.

Thanks for your speedy reply.

I have the HP Compaq 8710w on order and the first accessory I want to buy for this notebook is an additional hard-drive with matching specifications. I'm assuming its a SATA type drive (?). However are there any higher capacity drives out there on the market with the 7200 rpm speed that will be compatible with this unit?

The fastest and biggest available on the market now are the 320GB 7200rpm 2.5" SATA hard disks from Western Digital and Seagate. The notebook will support it.

Please, let me know what is the difference between these two mem modules: HP 2-GB (DDR2 667 MHz) SODIMM (EM995AA) and HP 2-GB (DDR2 667 MHz) SODIMM (EM995UT).
Thank you!

Same modules, just by different vendors. Don't buy memory from HP, get it from 3rd party vendors as HP RAM is overpriced.

thanks, could you be more precisely, which one?

Basically, any DDRII-667/800MHz notebook ram (SODIMM) will be fine.
