Crucial 8GB Single DDR4 2133 MT/s (PC4-17000) DR x8 SODIMM 260-Pin Memory - CT8G4SFD8213

No issues

Great product, have been using this in my laptop several years now. It boosted performance and has never failed.

This memory card (Crucial 16 GB DDR4 2,133 MHz) works perfectly in my new Lenovo ThinkPad T470s laptop, boosting the 8 GB it came with to 24 GB and saving me over $200 in comparison to what was being charged by Lenovo on their website when I was in the process of customizing my laptop for purchase.If you are considering purchasing this for a laptop you don't yet own, I caution you to wait for the laptop to arrive first! I had a bit of a scare because I ordered this memory card from Amazon immediately after ordering the laptop from Lenovo. Amazon delivered this memory card in less than 48 hours but Lenovo was delayed and I did not receive my laptop until 3 weeks later. This was scary because Amazon only allows returns within 30 days and had I gotten the wrong memory, I almost came close to not being able to return it.This memory card was easy to install. I just unscrewed five Philips head screws on the back of the laptop (disregarding the keyboard lock/unlock screw and being aware the screws don't drop out after loosened, there is a round thing holding each one to the lid). I then inserted the memory card into the extra slot until it snapped in place.

This memory is very inexpensive compared to same memory from following:$300 - Dell$180 - Crucial$140 - AmazonCrucial gave me link to Amazon and said they Crucial honors lifetime warranty replacement regardless of where purchased.45 days full refund for return - Crucial30 days full refund for return - AmazonI watched YouTube on how to replace memory in my Dell XPS 15 9550.I then replaced memory in XPS within 5 mins.Didn't have to change anything in BIOS/CMOS.When system booted it displayed a screen saying memory size increased and waited for me to press ok.Other than that, system recognized it without any incidents or issues...I then tested memory using diagnostics in BIOS. Ran full suite of advance tests and it passed everything.I then performed numerous backups of various types which required numerous shutdowns and power ups and bios changes over 24hr period...The memory has worked flawless...I opened numerous screens and no issues...I'm going to open multiple guest operating systems using VMware 12... and see how it behaves...I'm very pleased with extra memory and quality of memory and glad I didn't encounter any issues.

The packaging this RAM comes in is cheap, effective and easy to get into. I haven't had any stability issues since installing in my Lenovo Y700 laptop more than a month ago. I went to 16GB and it's nice never having to close programs day-to-day. Photoshop, Premiere, whatever, just minimize and fire up GTA V to take a break, then go right back to work. It's cheap, it works...recommended!

I purchased two of these kits for my Dell Precision 7510 laptop in order to increase the amount of RAM to 64GB. I work with a lot of virtual machines and having more memory allows me to have more complex environments with more machines running at once. It took a little bit of power cycling in order to get the laptop to properly boot once I increased the memory to 64GB, but after a few reboots and making sure I had the latest BIOS and other drives installed, it has been working flawlessly.Initially I installed all 64GB and it took a long time for the system to boot, this is because the default BIOS setting verifies the memory that is installed and detects when the amount of installed RAM changes. In some cases I think I was simply impatient because the "Thorough" boot sequence that gets triggered when the amount of RAM changes takes a LOT longer than the "Fast" boot that typically occurs. After booting with 64GB "failed" or I was too impatient, I booted with 32GB and it worked quite well. I then made sure I could get into Windows and that it saw all the memory, and then I installed the 64GB again and checked all the BIOS settings (once I was able to get into the BIOS). I made sure I had carefully and fully seated all the memory, and after a few more restarts I got the prompt that the 64GB was recognized and I saw it in the BIOS, so then I waited patiently while it booted until I got into Windows. This has been running great for weeks now in my laptop in both Windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04.
