Crucial RAM CT102464BF160B DDR3 1600 MHz CL11 Laptop Memory, Multicolor, 8 GB

Rating: ★★★★★ (5/5 - A Snappy Comeback for a Tired Machine) Let's be honest. My poor laptop had reached a state of profound philosophical thoughtfulness. It would pause, not to process, but seemingly to contemplate the vast, cosmic meaning of every click. Opening a browser was less a task and more a meditation on mortality. It had all the urgency of a sloth on a spa day. This little green stick of potential arrived, no bigger than a stick of gum and about as heavy as a guilty conscience. Installation was a simple case of a satisfying click into a dark slot—a moment of silent communion between man and motherboard. The transformation wasn't gradual; it was instantaneous. Upon reboot, the machine didn't just wake up—it sprang to life with the vigour of a puppy who's just heard the lead jingle. Where there was once a wistful beach ball of doom, there is now only brisk, efficient action. Tabs open without sighing. Programs load without writing their memoirs first. It's like the difference between wading through treacle and skating on ice. For a pittance, it has gifted my faithful old laptop a new lease on life, postponing its well-earned retirement for years. It is, without hyperbole, the most cost-effective personality transplant money can buy. Five stars. My laptop no longer contemplates the universe. It just gets on with it, and for that, I am eternally grateful.

Read a few reviews about installing extra RAM in an old 2012 MacBook as could not afford a new one. After many reviews and a few video tutorials from YouTube i decided to give it a go - besides my MacBook is well out of warranty so worst case scenario i would be stuck with the original 4GB RAM! Spent more time trying to find a screwdriver with a small enough head to undo the screws on the underside of my MacBook than to actually install the RAM. It was this simple - Screws out, cover off, disconnected power connector, quick click to pull old RAM out, inserted new Ram, reconnected power connecter, screw back cover on and switched on - hey presto! My MacBook now has 16GB RAM, 4 times the amount it was sold with and is again a dream to work on. If anyone else has a 4gb RAM 2012 MacBook and is losing their mind with the slowness (as i was) I would highly recommend buying more RAM (max 16gb i think they take) which cost 100/th of a new MacBook, you will not be disappointed. (My only problem now is the ever fastening battery drain, but my machine is 10 years old and other than that still going strong so can't complain too much)

I purchased two of these RAM sticks from Amazon Warehouse for my HP Elitebook 840 G1. According to Crucial's own website this RAM is compatible for the intended laptop and I can confirm they do work perfectly and at full speed. The memory units were also in good condition and there were no faults when running Memory Test from the BIOS screen. The only thing that might scare you a little is that the silver holding clips did not sit perfectly on the grooves like the stock RAM provided by HP itself but the RAM is still secure, doesn't move about and connects fully. My system recognised the RAM with no problems at all, I plugged it in and turned on the laptop and that was it. Just a note to those who are new at this, RAM doesn't have drivers so all you have to do is plug it in and that should be it if nothing went wrong. There is no software to install. I'll try to add a picture of the clip later and if someone else made it sit better, please let me know :) Edit: As you can see in the picture (sorry for bad quality, it's the best focus I could get on) the silver clips don't sit in the grooves perfectly and the ridge by the connectors has a gap too. I applied moderate force and did not try to force it into the grooves as I was afraid of damaging it.

This is to let everybody know that this ram is perfectly compatible with Dell Inspiron 15 3531 running with processor Intel Celeron N2830 and hard disk 500GB. I spent months to find out how to go from 4GB ram to 8GB ram. Checked out Intel files about the processor, tried to find motherboard specs. Almost all the vendors told me that it was not possible, that I had to stick with 4GB, no options to upgrade. Well, it was untrue. This 8GB ram is working amazingly, the values taken from Task Manager are extremely low, the use of the disk turns from 98% to 12% and the overall performance of the laptop is greatest than it has ever been before. Just use some commonsense when installing: clean the working area, if possible do it on a wood table without any electric appliance on it. Turn off the laptop, take the battery out, press the power button for at least 15 secs to drain all the circuits from any energy residues. Open the panel, wash your hands (yes, you know that!) and do not touch the golden pins both of the old and the new ram. That's it. A relatively small investment to gain a new, powerful laptop.

I made sure I got the specs right and read reviews here on Amazon so I was pretty sure I had the right RAM. I can't comment on the durability but I already had Crucial RAM installed and it's been running with no problems on my laptop from when it was new 6 years ago. I bought two Crucial 8 gb SODIMMs to replace the two 4 gb chips already installed - there's only two slots on my MBP and 16 gb is the maximum my laptop can take. Fitting is a bit fiddly but with care they clip nicely in place. An old mac laptop needs as much help as it can get with the newest memory hungry systems and applications. Along with the installation of a solid state drive I've now made my mid 2012 MacBook Pro super quick and comparable to a new laptop for a tiny fraction of the price of one!

Bought this product for my wife's macbook pro 13, mid 2012. Yes, I replaced the old 2x2Gb. The system could not take 8+2 gb, so I'm left with 8 Gb. But I'm happy. You don't need to upgrade them to 2x8gb because macos will not utilize your ram like windows does. I've also upgraded the old hard drive with a samsung 850 ssd. Now, it feels like a 2018 laptop.. Super fast! Note : don't forget to reset your ram after replacing them with the new one. Good things : plug and play and no hassle Bad thing : The price is a bit high for an old ram technology

Excellent thing, I liked it for a while then it contracted dementia now it’s memory cannot remember anything so I had to throw my Sinclair computer in the bin isn’t it.

Perfect upgrade for my Synology DS216+II NAS. Note installing 3rd party memory, or any memory in my particular model, voids warranty with Synology. Installation is really easy, normally as these SODIMMs just click in. Not the memory's fault, but my particular use case required disassembly of the entire unit to get at the slot; this of course wouldn't be the case with a normal laptop install. My Synology data is very important to me, I can honestly say that Crucial is the only 3rd party memory provider I would consider, having bought hundreds of sticks over the years and never a single fault. The NAS performance is night and day between the stock 1GB and this 8GB replacement, everything is quicker in the order of 2-5 times. Even with only basic services running, my NAS was using swap partition frequently before the upgrade.

Excellent in performance and very easy to install. Just follow the instructions on crutial YouTube. My laptop had 8gb RAM and was bought in 2014. It's working amazingly well with this additional RAM. Have also got their SSD to give it a better performance.

Montata su Asus F555L va benissimo . Il pc ha acquistato velocità nel caricare e aprire pagine.Sono contentissimo la ricomprerei senza esitazioni. La consiglio vivamente.

I’ve received the product as planned, and it’s working perfectly. Many thanks to the seller for his honesty and reliability.

El slot de memoria me hizo que mi antiguo pc con 4 Gb de RAM pasara a 12 GB de RAM por tener un slot libre y ha sido un cambio de velocidad a la hora de ejecutar programas increíble. Antes tenía consumida un 94% de memoria con lo cual el pc iba muy lento y muchas veces se colapsaba. Ahora tiene un 34% de memoria en uso. Estaba a punto de comprar otro pc, ha sido un acierto increíble.
