New life for old notebook PC

I've bought several things from StarTech and not been disappointed. You do need to use their drivers.  This gave new life to an old notebook PC. External drives are now faster than original internal drive!

Shut down the laptop, all the way off, not hibernate.  Remove the two screws and the center vented cover from the bottom of the laptop.  Remove the existing memory by gently spreading the clips and lifting the modules out.  Install the new modules, noting that they are keyed and only go in one way.  Insert the connector end first, then lower the module until the clips lock in.  Put the cover back on.  Power up the laptop.  You will get a message that the memory has changed (and a suggestion to reseat the memory modules).  Ignore the reseat suggestion, the memory changed because you just changed it!.  Restart the laptop and press the F2 key to enter the Bios setup screen.  Arrow down to the 'memory' secction.  Verify the Bios is reporting 2 GB.  Exit the Bios and the laptop will boot into windows as normal.  Select Start > Computer > right click > Properties.  Windows will show 2GB memory.  On vista, the performance is much better with 2 GB commpared to 1 GB.  New life for an aging laptop, easily worth the cost of the upgrade.

Just the ticket to restore a favorite classic old computer case to usability.  Takes up less space than the PIII motherboard it replaced but has two cores for enhanced multitasking. At less than $70, it was a bargain.  Wish I had ordered two.

As advertised. BIOS recognized it immediately and correctly ID'd it. Unfortunately, the notebook I bought it for took a motherboard dump right after this arrived, so I have not been using it. I have another machine that it will fit into, but to do so would be a RAM downgrade for that machine, so I will just hang onto it.

These memories work perfect with my HP Pavilion dv2000.
I just open the notebook, took the old ones, put these new ones and everything was ready to go.
Also, my computer description states that my notebook has 4GB of RAM.

My old HP Notebook only had 4 gigs of memory and it wasn't enough to run Photoshop and Lightroom without lag. Since I wasn't ready to purchase a new laptop I decided to try to add this 8 GB kit. The notebook has a max memory of 8 GB with only two slots to add memory to. This kit fits the requirements of my notebook.

Crucial has always made a good product and this one is no different. It came in an easy to open package and was installed within minutes. The notebook started right up and is running quickly. The new memory should keep me from buying a new notebook for another year or so.

I buy so much Crucial memory it's as second nature as getting out of bed in the morning.

This kit was purchased to upgrade the 2GB standard in our two Hannspree SN12E2 notebooks to 4GB.

My usual procedure applied here:
1. Go to crucial.com
2. Use memory advisor to look up machine or motherboard
3. Make note of Crucial part number
4. Purchase on Amazon
5. Install and be happy

I needed to replace the memory cards in my ASUS X750 series notebook when Windows reported there were problems with them. I did some research, and learned that the X750 series has two SATA drive slots. I decided to upgrade the notebook from the factory supplied 8 GB RAM to 16 GB, and also add this 250 GB SDD as a boot drive, making the original 1 TB HDD into a data drive.

The end result is that I have a screaming fast notebook. Boot time from full shut down is faster than wake-up with normal Win 10. If you have the skills and confidence to open up your machine, then this is well worth the time, effort, and cost.
