FAQ
What systems is this memory module compatible with?
This Axiom 8GB DDR3L-1600 SODIMM is specifically engineered for Lenovo notebooks and small form factor desktops. It maintains compatibility with numerous ThinkPad, IdeaPad, and ThinkCentre models including ThinkPad T, X, L, and E series notebooks, IdeaPad Y and G series, Yoga convertible models, and ThinkCentre M, E, and B series compact desktops. The module has been validated for systems using the 0B47381 and 03X6657 part numbers.
What are the benefits of DDR3L low-voltage memory?
DDR3L memory operates at 1.35V compared to standard DDR3's 1.5V, resulting in approximately 15% lower power consumption. This reduction decreases heat generation within systems, extends battery life in portable devices, and reduces overall system cooling requirements. Despite the lower voltage, DDR3L maintains full performance compatibility with DDR3 systems that support the low-voltage specification.
What is the difference between SODIMM and regular DIMM memory?
SODIMM (Small Outline Dual In-line Memory Module) is a compact form factor designed for space-constrained systems like notebooks and small form factor desktops. This 204-pin SODIMM measures 2.66" × 1.18" × 0.15", significantly smaller than the 5.25" length of standard 240-pin desktop DIMMs. While both provide the same memory functionality, SODIMMs are physically incompatible with standard DIMM slots and vice versa.
Can this memory module be used in dual-channel configurations?
Yes, this 8GB DDR3L-1600 SODIMM supports dual-channel operation when installed in identical pairs. For optimal dual-channel performance, install two of these modules in matching memory slots as specified by your system's motherboard documentation. Dual-channel configuration doubles the available memory bandwidth compared to single-channel operation, improving performance in memory-intensive applications.
What does the PC3L-12800 designation mean?
PC3L-12800 is the industry standard designation for DDR3L memory modules operating at 1600 MHz. The 'PC3' indicates DDR3 technology, the 'L' signifies low-voltage operation at 1.35V, and '12800' represents the peak transfer rate of 12,800 MB/s. This module is fully compatible with systems specifying DDR3-1600 or PC3L-12800 memory requirements.
What warranty coverage does this memory module include?
Axiom provides a lifetime warranty for this 8GB DDR3L-1600 SODIMM memory module. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship for the product's usable life, offering long-term reliability assurance for business and personal computing environments. The warranty applies to the original purchaser and is valid through authorized resellers like FleetNetwork.ca.
