FAQ
What Lenovo systems is this memory module compatible with?
This Axiom 8GB DDR4-2666 SODIMM is specifically validated for Lenovo ThinkCentre desktop PCs including models M625q, M715q, M720q, M920q, V330-15IGM, and V530-15ICB, as well as the Lenovo ThinkPad P52 mobile workstation. It is designed for systems that support DDR4-2666 SODIMM memory with 260-pin connectors.
What is the difference between DDR4-2666 and PC4-21300?
DDR4-2666 refers to the memory technology and clock speed (2666 million transfers per second), while PC4-21300 indicates the theoretical peak transfer rate (21,300 MB/s). These are two ways of describing the same memory standard. This module meets both specifications, providing 2666 MHz operation with a PC4-21300 data rate.
Is this memory module ECC or non-ECC?
This is a non-ECC (Error-Correcting Code) memory module. It does not include the additional circuitry for detecting and correcting memory errors. Non-ECC memory is standard for most consumer and many professional notebook systems, offering cost-effective performance without error correction capabilities.
What does 'unbuffered' mean for this memory module?
Unbuffered memory modules communicate directly with the memory controller without an intermediate buffer register. This design reduces latency compared to registered (buffered) memory, resulting in faster memory access times. Unbuffered modules are standard for notebook and desktop systems where low latency is prioritized over maximum capacity expansion.
Can I use this module to upgrade my Lenovo notebook's memory?
Yes, this 8GB DDR4-2666 SODIMM is designed specifically for memory upgrades in compatible Lenovo notebooks and mobile workstations. Before installation, verify your system supports DDR4-2666 memory, has available SODIMM slots, and matches the compatibility list including ThinkCentre and ThinkPad models specified for this module.
What is the operating voltage of this DDR4 memory module?
This module operates at 1.20 volts, which is the standard voltage for DDR4 memory. The 1.20V specification represents a significant reduction from DDR3's 1.5V standard, resulting in lower power consumption and reduced heat generation. This efficiency is particularly beneficial for notebook systems where battery life and thermal management are important considerations.
