Most PCs & workstations use unbuffered memory which is faster than registered memory, so give your notebook computer system a true performance boost with this precision-made 4GB SO-DIMM memory module from Crucial. You'll appreciate the swift performance that your laptop will benefit from when you use SDRAM operating memory. You already value portability, so take on board this memory component for efficiency.
204-pin SODIMM
In short, 204-pin small outline dual inline memory modules (SODIMMs) are the form factor used to provide DDR3 memory modules for notebook computers & other small form factor computing platforms. 204-pin SODIMMs are currently available in PC3-8500 (DDR3 1066 M Hz) & PC3-10600 (DDR3 1333 M Hz) speeds.
To use DDR3 memory, your system must have both a 204-pin SODIMM slot & a chipset that supports DDR3 memory. A DDR3 SODIMM will not fit into DDR2 or DDR memory sockets.
SODIMMs are smaller & thinner than regular DIMMs, & the 204-pin SODIMM PCBs are always ~2.6 inches long & are usually around 1.18 inches high (though the heights can vary slightly). They consist of a number of memory components (usually black) that are attached to a printed circuit board (usually green). The number of memory components on a 204-pin SODIMM's printed circuit board (PCB) can vary, but the PCB will always have 102 pins on the front & the back both, for a total of 204 pins. The gold pins on the bottom of the SODIMM provide the connection between the memory module & the memory socket.
