      They were showing you how to actually replace your RAM, not advise you on what ram is best use and for what. Besides it will be the exact same in all laptops. Aside from the positioning of the RAM, and amount of customisation, as stated in the video. For example my laptop has two upgradable ram slots!

      There are differences between ddr3 and ddr4 so-dimm ram so you will need to check your laptop by either checking the spec sheet or speaking with the manufacturer and giving them the model number. Most modern laptops are so-dimm however there may be high end gaming/workstation laptops that use non so-dimm ram similar to a PC tower. Again check your laptop as there are hundreds and hundreds of different models and configuration.

      Don't buy, no such thing as a 1TB ram stick, especially not for $40. 32gb is more than enough for most laptops. If you're doing high end gaming or 3d rendering, then yes, more is better.
      And no, ram does not store long term data, so it will not affect your files.

      It's generally not good practice to mix brands....while it may work fine, there's also no guarantee. The "latency" between chip brands can often vary!....so there's a chance your RAM chips will kinda be out of sync, which can actually slow your CPU down, or it won't perform as Good as it should with those RAM upgrades.....that's the way I understand it in simple terms. I've never tried to see if this is true, but that's what other people say.

      Well of course not... There are different generations of memory over the past 25+ years. Modern computers usually have DDR4 or DDR5 RAM. RAM is neither backwards nor forwards compatible.
