Review on 💽 Crucial Technology CT25664AA800: High-Performance 2GB 240-Pin DIMM DDR2 PC2-6400 Memory Module by Dylan Aaronson

In my spare time I've been working on updating an old standard desktop computer. Specifically, the Dell Inspiron 531 that was released in the mid-2000s (2005-2008). As part of the updates I'm trying to move it from a 32-bit to a 64-bit OS. Of course I had to upgrade the RAM for this, but after reading some of the old discussion forums I heard a rumor that if you update the BIOS for the standard Asus M2N61-AX motherboard, it can recognize 8GB of RAM. But I didn't want to believe the rumours, so I bought a stick of 2GB of DDR2 RAM to test what I read about, as I already had 3GB of RAM on this desktop, along with 64-bit installed on the computer -Operating system. SSD as boot drive. After installing a new flash drive and booting up, if the Inspiron 531 recognized the flash drive and the total available RAM was 5GB, that would prove what I read was correct. It was. If the rest of my planned upgrades work, I'll consider buying three more sticks to increase the RAM to 8GB. Whether or not I buy more of this type or RAM, I'm glad I did and I'm grateful to Crucial as well. In terms of SSDs and RAM, they can compete with other reliable vendors like Sandisk, ADATA, Intel and Samsung; but they can come out on top in terms of accessibility. The last one suited me well.
