Yes you can. Yes it is worth it. Put the 512's in the first slots, read the manual to find out which they are.

You can usually find a manual to download from the manufacturers website, try googling for one.

If all the memory is the same type, see the stickers on the memory, then they will all work together. It is best to put the better ram in the primary slots. As a newbie you will need to find out which is the primary slots by looking at a manual. You can just put the ram in any of the slots though.

If they make 2GB RAM & your BIOS see's 4GB.
Some laptops will have a limit to what they can see!
