FAQ
What type of systems is this memory module compatible with?
This AddOn memory module is designed for notebook systems that support DDR3-1600 SODIMM memory with 204-pin interfaces. It requires a system with compatible memory slots that accept unbuffered non-ECC DDR3 modules operating at 1.5V. Always verify your specific notebook model's memory specifications before purchase to ensure compatibility.
What does dual-rank architecture mean for this memory module?
Dual-rank architecture means the memory module organizes its memory chips into two independent sets that the memory controller can access separately. This configuration can improve performance in certain scenarios by allowing more efficient memory access patterns compared to single-rank modules, potentially providing better multitasking performance in compatible systems.
How does the 1600MHz speed with CL11 latency affect performance?
The 1600MHz operating frequency determines how quickly the memory can transfer data, while the CL11 (CAS Latency 11) timing specifies how many clock cycles it takes to access data once requested. This combination provides a balance of bandwidth and responsiveness suitable for notebook applications, supporting smooth multitasking and application performance in systems designed for DDR3-1600 memory.
What is the difference between unbuffered and registered memory?
Unbuffered memory, like this module, communicates directly with the memory controller without an intermediate register, resulting in lower latency. Registered memory includes a register that buffers signals, allowing support for more memory modules but with slightly higher latency. This unbuffered design is standard for consumer and business notebook memory, providing direct communication with the system's memory controller.
Does this memory support ECC error correction?
No, this is a non-ECC memory module. It does not include Error-Correcting Code functionality that can detect and correct certain types of memory errors. Non-ECC memory is standard for consumer and many business notebook systems, while ECC memory is typically reserved for servers and workstations where maximum data integrity is critical.
What warranty coverage does this memory module include?
This AddOn memory module comes with a lifetime limited warranty. This coverage typically protects against defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the product when used under normal conditions according to specifications. The warranty terms are designed to provide long-term assurance for this memory upgrade investment.
