download a program called cpu id, it will tell you what chipset your motherboard has, then look up the chipset on google to find out what kinda of max ram it can take. speed wise.

Learn to use google, the first link it found for PCV-RS320 was: http://reviews.cnet.com/Sony_VAIO_PCV_RS320/4505-3118_7-30461171-2.html?tag=nav
which states:

There are 512MB of PC2700 SDRAM installed, but the motherboard's 800MHz frontside bus begs for faster PC3200 memory.

Using 400MHz memory, which the chipset supports, would have helped; instead, the VAIO PCV-RS320 uses 333MHz memory.
------------

So yes, it should support PC3200 memory, but as for SATA? I think you're out of luck. You'll have to open your case to see for sure, but I see no mention of it.
