What brand to R31 laptop RAM upgrade to?

I am trying to upgrade the RAM of an old IBM R31 Thinkpad with a stick of 512 MB.

Of memory should what brand I buy?  Should I got to one of these sites, like memoryx.com, where I buy the RAM under the dropdown under R31?

Where can I buy a RAM pc133 144 pins?

I've heard that some older laptops can be weird with some memory.

Thank you!

No, being a tight WAD I just chose the package of pc133 144 pins cheaper they had in stock :-)

My only regret is that I did not purchase, two of them, when I had the chance.

  • DV6 6154tx: my laptop ram upgradation

    Hello I write to inquire about upgrading my ram of the laptop. I am currently using the standard 4 GB ram provided for me with my laptop. But now I want to have more memory. My processor is a core i5-2430 cpu @ 2.40 GHz.  I want to know how much and how fast ram can only install on my pc.  my product serial No. is not SCH1321APY and prodcut. is QG477PA #ACJ

    Yes. Exactly. You can install 1600 mhz but it works at 1333, so you might as well get the correct memory. 1600 can downclock, but safer to buy the specified memory.

  • Pavilion 15-ab150sa: HP - Pavilion 15-ab150sa 15.6 "laptop RAM UPGRADE QUESTION

    It is said in the task manager that one slot free, I was just wondering if I could upgrade the laptop to 16 GB. Laptops have already been 1x8gb.

    Can my all new laptop handle it?

    Thank you very much, and best wishes,

    Mr. Hayle.

    Unfortunately, HP has not posted a manual for your specific model. The Star Wars thing is the series of 15 t-ab100 and the same physical case and the layout, just Intel AMD not. There is a forum for active discussion on the model of Star Wars and we know by experience of the user, it can be upgraded to 16 gigs and it also comes with a single module of 8 GB and an open slot.

    I think this might be your manual, even if it is found under the designation 15z-ab000, A8-7410 processor and the plug and the configuration described in the manual seem to be the same as yours:

    Manual

    It is said expressly:

    Supports up to 16 GB of RAM in the following configurations.

    I do not work for HP. I am a user final colleague who has some knowledge based on fact that for a few years. I never came across a computer that will a 8 GB module and has a slot for memory that will not accept a second module of 8 GB for a total of 16 concerts. If you buy the 8 GB module and it doesn't work I'll buy it from you for a reasonable current retail value. Just PM me.

    Note that this upgrade memory isn't a thing authorized for mutual assistance. The warranty may or may not remain intact.

    Also be aware that the upgrade from 8 GB to 16 GB does not alter the performance of the machine much, if at all for the majority of computer users and could well be a waste of money. But if you do heavy photo or video production work, drop the pieces of music or compile large batches of the Code you can use 16 gigs successfully. Same game didn't really need more than 8 GB, however.

  • HP 2000-2110TU laptop: RAM upgrade

    I want upgrede RAM in my laptop.  What RAM capacity is supported by my laptop. which RAM company is the best?

    Supports 8192 MB RAM system in the following configurations: ● 8192 MB (4096 MB × 2;

    DDR3/1333 MHz dual channel support (downgrade/DDR3 1600 MHz at DDR3-1333)

    Your manual

    See page 39 for "how-to". Your specified 4-gig module:

    Module memory 4 GB (PC3 12800, 1600 MHz) 652972-001

    https://www.Amazon.com/HP-10600-579155-001-MMH6114-652972-001/DP/B003L27BB0/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8 & qid = 1475677829 & SR = 8-2 & Keywords = 652972-001

    It comes to DDR3-1600 and DDR3-1333 1.5 volt memory. None of the "general public" memory manufacturers; Kingston, Crucial, Samsung will have compatible memory and I would stick with them. Try to match what you already have... as many blocks on the side of the module, same side for CL. This will ensure a faster operation dual channel.

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    I'll try to give you some answers:

    # According to specification of laptop there two RAM slots
    # Your laptop can handle with 4 GB max, then you can do whatever you want and it depends on how much RAM you want to have inside. You can buy a module of RAM of 2 GB and 3 GB of RAM. That should be enough to work with Vista or Win7 even. Of course, you can upgrade to maximum and buy 2 X 2 GB.
    # It has no meaning at all. If the speed of the FSB of your motherboard is 53 MHz why use 800 MHZ modules. Your laptop will not be faster because of Rams with more MHz.
    # Yes, Kingston product high quality and using Kingston modules, you should not have compatibility problems.
    # I put t see any reason why you shouldn't be able to install Win7, but before this visit Toshiba support page and check if your phone model is supported for Win7.

  • Satellite 3000 - X 4: Question about RAM upgrade

    Hi all

    I'm looking for more information on how to upgrade the RAM for my SATELLITE S3000 - X 4 (120 MB RAM, 14 GB HD I think!). Here's a little history...

    This laptop is about 5 years old, and I'm hoping to speed up a bit. I don't want to buy a new computer because she usually serves my needs.

    I emptied my hard drive files and unwanted programs. And I ran Jv16 Power Tools to clean the registry and minimize starts the process.

    It's always a little slow and if I am considering upgrading the RAM because I think I can do this for about £50. My questions are:

    What type of upgrade RAM should I look to buy? (This laptop have 2 RAM "plug-ins" or just one?)
    What is the size of RAM upgrade is the maximum an S3000 - X 4 could face?
    Could a novice like me to adapt to the style DIY upgrade?

    Thanks for any help you can offer!

    Hi Gabrielle

    He is old enough. I looked for some info, but unfortunately I n t have not found much. The device can use the 512 MB of RAM, and you can use 2 sticks of memory. I'm not 100% sure but I think you can use the module with tracking number PA3086U - 1. 25 M.

    The unit is not known to me but please check the underside. On most units, you can find coverage of memory.

  • G7-1083nr Pavilion: Pavilion g7-1083nr ram upgrade

    What is the capacity of ram upgrade use for a Pavilion g7-1083nr?  Currently I have 4 GB but I want MORE!

    You are the very welcome, John.

    No, maximum size chip, you can put in each slot is only 4 GB.

    What I mean by the 8 black chips instead of 4 bit is noted in the images below.

    8 tokens: recommended.

    http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16820231342

    4 chips: not recommended.  May not be enough low density.

    http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16820161595

    The Intel Mobile chipset with the processor that your model can run at 1066 MHz.

    Thus, memory at 1333 MHz will be downclock at 1066 Mhz speed to match how fast the processor can run.

  • Satellite A200-1FL: RAM Upgrade - what memory can I use?

    I think to update the RAM of my laptop, but I do not know what type of memory should I buy and what brands are compatible.

    The current RAM is 2 GB and I would switch to a 3 or 4 GB.
    However, I would like to know if this laptop is compatible with Linux.

    Thank you

    Theoretically, you can use the modules of memory from different manufacturers.
    But modules of memory must support the right specifications.

    You must use the modules that are DDR2 667 MHz (PC2-5300) 200 - PIN SODIMM.

    You can update the memory up to 4 GB, but I think that it of not necessary to do this because the windows OS will recognize only 3 GB due to the limitation of the 32 bit OS.

    What about you, Linux question.
    Is Toshiba doesn't release all the drivers for Linux and so you need to get the drivers on sites of third other 3rd. But in general I put t see any trouble along with the installation of Linux on Toshiba laptops.

    Good bye

  • Laptop HP 15-R204NE: RAM upgrade

    Hi all

    So today, I tried to upgrade my laptop RAM of 4 GB (single channel) up to 8 GB (dual channel) by adding another 4 GB SO - DIMM. I did the disassembly and reassembly successfully process.

    When I booted up my laptop, in system properties, it shows me only 4.00 GB of Ram.

    I use CPU - Z to more statistics. CPU - Z listed the locations of memory in use. (Pictures below).

    But on the memory tab, CPU - Z shows 8Gbytes running on the same channel.

    There is no difference in performance, same as before.

    It's the RAM that I got my upgrade:

    http://www.lazada.com.my/Samsung-4GB-DDR3-pc3l-12800s-1600mhz-notebook-RAM-10441693.html

    I did a search before obtaining the DIMM and I kept the specs in return (PC3L - 12800 S 4 GB 1600 Mhz).

    But the part number, serial number and the week/year are different on the new RAM.

    In addition, on the new RAM chips are different and double chips that my original RAM.

    Properties:

    CPU - Z

    It is the upgrade of Ram.

    It is the original my laptop Ram comes with.

    I don't know what seems to be the issue here.

    I don't have to RAM bad? Because I also checked for update of the BIOS and I already have the last.

    Can someone tell what is the issue and guide me accordingly?

    Help is very appreciated.

    Kind regards

    Zarak

    Yes, the problem is that the memory is incompatible. Density (number of coins) is important. It is a good illustration that when we say constantly that it is better to install corresponding modules there is a reason for the advice.

    Also, tell me that it is a good idea to install the first location of 2 GB and 4 GB in second Slot? or go with 2 * 2 GB into the two slots? My processor is Capable of running 4 + 2 GB of RAM?

    I joined my current RAM.

    If you are going to use 4 gig modules get 2 as it is only a few dollars more and you'll be much happier with it running in dual channel mode.
