well, memtest ran for 3 full passes with 0 errors. i'm satisfied but if i bought again i will still run memtest before i throw away the box it came in :-)
1853576
heh Understood, and much more comforting to know you ran and it passed, three tests. >__>b I'm definitely interested, as this is a great deal for 16GB. Thanks for the quick response!
1853577
update: my ram arrived today (thank you amazon prime!) and i'm running memtest on it right now. 16GB sure takes a while :-)

Thanks Tim for the education and advice. I decided if I was going to bother doing it, I should do it right... so I went with the sub on newegg and will just donate or ditch my non-powered Samsung. Thanks again for all your help!

Amazon sent me a new MB overnight, and a prepaid mailing label to return the defective MB. Verified that all RAM chips were working by placing them in the good slots. The placed them in the bad slots. Also, when the new replacement board arrived, all RAM chips worked in all 4 slots. Asus wanted me to send them the defective board, and then they would send a replacement, if their board was defective.The customer service representative at Amazon recognized that I had the MB for less than 3 days, and sent me a brand new replacement.

The person I tried to do business with did not follow through,put a solid-state Samsung drive in and it will make the machine feel like brand-new.And you won't have to add the memory most likely.

Also is the existing memory soldered in? can it be taken out and replaced with a new memory module? The specs say it supports up to 16GB, has anyone tried it yet?

Hello,I just finished buying an ASUS 1000HE (literally within the past hour or so), but while I wait for it to get shipped, I was wondering if I should also opt for the memory upgrade. Seems, cheap and effortless to install, I'm just curious, have you noticed a significant difference in performance?Thanks.

For some reason Crucial and Kingston just wouldn't narrow it down for me when I tried a few months ago. Never had that happen before, seems to be running fine now. I had a look at my old order from Amazon and it is identical to the 390 ram that is listed. Your only other question would be how much ram can your computer take. I have the Mini Tower (the large one) and it is maxed at 8 gigs of ram, 4 gigs per bank. Mine only had two gigs in it and I wanted to max it out. I don't remember what the other models are maxed at. I had to do a lot of online looking to find all this out as I was also looking for an updated video card so things get a little blurry.

Mine came with one 4GB stick of Samsung RAM. I did some research and found Crucial CT51272BD160B was compatible. I picked up 8GB (2x4GB sticks) off of an eBay seller for $60, and it's been working great with the Samsung and the Crucial together. ** Edited - I originally said I found Kingston TSB16D3LS1KBG/4G, which is incorrect. **

I'm not sure on that, but a phone call or e-mail to Crucial's Support dept I'm sure would clear that up. They were quite helpful when I contacted them about a quirky issue I had installing my kit on my hp laptop. It caused my 'puter to overheat upon initial installation, but turned out to be an issue with the heatsink instead. Once I opened up my system and cleaned the heatsink my 'puter has run like never before. I can now run game programs that I was deleting because they would freeze up. I've used other brands of memory in the past and I'd have to say Crucial is the best if only for their customer service. Good American company.

Tested? I don't know. I did order it based on comments in another thread. The netbook has shipped. I haven't received a shipping confirmation on the memory yet. There are comments elsewhere on Amazon about people using the faster memory without any trouble. I am more likely to leave comments in these discussion threads than write a review after I've used the netbook some.

I think the manufacturer is Sandisk rather than Samsung despite what it says in the description. Sandisk are a well know memory card manufacturer, probably the most well known in fact. My memory card appears to be genuine and works just fine.

I just talked to an Amazon rep.. they told me they pulled the recalls immediately and reassured me that they are only selling those with a new chip. I sure hope they are right. I am about to hit the buy button on a new Asus laptop.

A quick search on Gigabytes website brought me to the QVL. I do not see this memory being supported. However that does not mean the memory won't work fine, it just means your manufacturer has not tested this memory(yet). Try checking with Gigabyte directly, or see if they have any forums to ask on. Maybe other Gigabyte users can give you a better response. You will probably be asked what revision your particular board is(v1, v1.2, v2 etc...) Also, check to see if the board came with a manual. Or even the disk, will sometimes contain a .pdf. QVL lists are usually shipped with the boards in some way, at least every board I've ever purchased has had one... Good luck!

I have a different model of Samsung Notebook and they work great. Best practice is to get the same memory that's in your notebook now ... ie. open the DIMM bay and write down the model of the memory that in there now and duplicate it.

Also, see the December 1, 2009 review of this memory by J. Santiago. He said that he installed it in his Samsung N120 without any problems.

I bought one of these motherboards and will not start, even with or without RAM. Amazon said they would send a new one, and responsibly did. This did not work either. I gave up. I am outside of the United States, specifically in Venezuela, and is a problem for me to return and bring the country back to the things I bought in the US. Sorry I can not help you more.
