    Comments about Crucial Technology 8GB (2x4GB) SO-DIMM Memory Upgrade Kit for Notebook:

    I recently upgraded my laptop from 4 to 8 GB. First I opened Task mgr; performance; then monitor to see if i was maxing memory out while running some memory hungry programs. I was and so researched RAM and found there are only a few manufacturers and Crucial was one and had clean customer reviews. I am very pleased with the speed and reliable no issue performance I now enjoy.

          I am surprised actually at how my laptop speed increased with the installation of this Crucial memory kit. I checked with Crucial to be sure the B&H product would fit my Toshiba and saved several bucks in the process. I had Crucial recommended to me by several friends and they were right. It performs as promised.

                  Comments about Crucial Technology 8GB (2x4GB) SO-DIMM Memory Upgrade Kit for Notebook:

                  I wasn't sure how much I would accomplish by upgrading my HP dv5 from 2x2GB DDR2 PC2-6400 SODIMMs to this 8GB Crucial kit, and I was very reluctant to buy anything online after a previous bad experience. I'm so glad I did it. I never thought I would hear so little sound coming from my laptop while it is doing so much.. surfing, burning, searching.. all at the same time (for comparison purposes, it's a 2.1 GHz AMD Turion X2 Ultra Dual Core processor). [...] Two things: 1) Don't freak out when you see PC2-5300 on the package. It's mislabeled, and your computer will verify for you that it is PC2-6400. [...] Still, I'm very happy with my product, you won't find it at a lower price, and I would buy again from B&H. Last tip: With the extra space, force your OS to keep executables on your RAM. It makes a difference.

                    Comments about Crucial Technology 8GB (2x4GB) SO-DIMM Memory Upgrade Kit for Notebook:

                    I use my new HP 8730w for Mechanical Engineering design work, including SolidWorks Simulation FEA. As I was running a preliminary finite element analysis I noticed that more memory would be needed to complete a RUSH project for my client...B&H had EXACTLY what I needed [...] Installation was easy and the analysis ran flawlessly, utilizing over 6.5 GB of the memory in the first few minutes! In addition, I saved over [$]vs. ordering the computer with the memory pre-installed (I just bought the computer two months ago)!Great product!Great price![...]Great company! Thank you B&H!
