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

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 memory was well packaged in a sturdy plasic housing that was easy to open. I purchased this RAM as an upgrade for my Asustor AS5002T NAS which came with just 1 GB pre installed. As usual with Crucial it arrived quickley and fitted easily with no problems, and my NAS immediately saw the 4GB on powering up. Be advised that you cannot leave the supplied 1GB chip in the first slot and add this chip to the second slot as the chips have to be matching pairs. The max total being 8 GB ie 4GB in each Memory slot. Slot one must be occupied. The memory chips are aligned by the cut out slot in the connectors and inserted into the socket at an angle lifting vertically as they are pushed in and engaging with the holding clips into the notches you can see on either side of the board. If you are uncertain there are plenty of clips on You Tube showing the method. Memory is susceptable to static so only hold by the edges and touch any earthed metal before starting especially if you have a nylon carpet etc. Once you have inserted the memory and powered up your equipment should start its power up sequence. If it hangs you have a problem with the memory, it is either incompatible, faulty or not inserted correctly. Try powering off and re-inserting it before going further. I had no problems with this Crucial memory, it looks well made and is functioning fine. As the price is reasonable I highly recommend it.

After purchasing many Crucial products in the past, this one lives to it's name. Crucial has been known for reliability and value and it certainly shows in this product. The 4GB DDR3 Laptop RAM has been working for around 1-2 months after purchasing and has increased productivity on my laptop by at least 50%. The RAM itself is very easy to install but you must be aware of the specifications of your laptop first before purchasing. These include: Slots available RAM speed RAM type Whilst the RAM works at incredible speeds and providing 4GB extra is fantastic, Crucial offers a Lifetime warranty on this product, so there is no need to worry about the product failing. I installed this into my Acer Aspire E1-571 and it instantly solved many of my issues such as lag when opening multiple programs, multi-tasking lag issues and video editing. It runs hot but cool enough to not overheat and is a fantastic addition to a machine that needs that slight boost. Finally, if your looking for some RAM for a laptop that is affordable, reliable and with great customer service... then this is the memory you are looking for.

I've been using a Fujitsu Lifebook E751 for several years, intel Core i5, 2.5 GHz with 4 GB DDR3 ram, and Windows 7 Pro. Main uses were internet and Photoshop ( Elements 8 ). No issues, and it's done everything I've ever asked, that was until I upgraded to Windows 10 Pro! It became so painful to use that for a few weeks I only switched it on for a couple of hours per day. I heard about a Security Patch update causing problems, and things improved once that was removed, but I guess Windows 10 was asking for more than my system could give. I decided to increase the ram so bought the 8 GB kit, and what a difference, everything is running so much smoother and quieter. I checked Task Manager before the upgrade and performance was running around 56% with the web browser open (Opera), now it runs as low as 29%...Very very happy and worth every penny.

Added this to a Toshiba laptop that only had 4GB of RAM in it. It greatly improves performance and makes a big difference to general usage. In case you weren't sure why RAM makes a computer faster, technically it doesn't actually do that. Think of RAM as being a desk. The bigger the desk the more files you can have out on it at the same time. A smaller desk means having to put files away in order to get more files out far more often. That takes up a lot of the other computer's resources. As with any RAM upgrade make sure you have a free slot and can access it. Make sure you are buying the right RAM as there are many different variants.

its very great value for money , instead i buy new laptop i kept mine old Hp and just upgraded to make it faster. Just make sure before u buy that u are able to dissassemble your device first to check the RAM slots you have inside and what RAM capacity you need. my mistake was i relied on Crucial website to scan my HP and advice for extra RAM i need , unfortunately they advised for 4 RAM which i already have 2 chips 8 RAMs inside , i had to cancel and reorder the 16 RAM instead .

The new RAM is performing as expected. I own Dell XPS L501X machine which is a 5 years old machine. I'm glad I made this purchase, as the performance improvement was quite noticeable. After doing some quick research on the internet, I learned that this brand has reasonable quality at a fair price. Would definitely recommend to go for it. If you own a branded machine and want to upgrade memory or move from HDD to SSD, their website has compatibility tool that will help you make your upgrade decision quicker and easier. Amazon is great, authentic and prompt as always. Always remember to filter your product search with 'Amazon fulfilled' or 'Prime' and you will be assured with genuine and fast (almost always before the promise date) delivery. Ecommerce buying couldn't be better.
