Here’s what I found in the official detailed specifications for Toshiba Satellite A55-S306.
Memory
• 256MB expandable to 1024MB (Both slots may be occupied.)
• Optional available expansion memory modules: 256MB/512MB/1024MB, SODIMM; Memory compatible with PC2700 DDR333
As you see, it’s not very clear if 1GB is max for one slot or for both slots but at the same time Toshiba offers 1GB optional memory modules, so I assume you can install 1GB into each slot.

Thanks, Doug * I just Bought a MacBook Pro to replace the old toshiba. quite the step up lol. i highly recommend it. best pc ive ever owned. Hey all, i have an old Toshiba Satellite A75-S206.
