Review on πŸ’» DUOMEIQI 2GB DDR2 667MHz SODIMM Non-ECC Unbuffered Notebook Memory Laptop RAM Module by Kevin Hawkins

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Revival of the old Dell

tl;dr: Good seller, fast delivery, well packaged, practical packaging. However, they do not have an anti-static film, so remove them carefully. So I had an old Dell Inspiron E1505 that I wanted to use to play around with Linux. I installed a cheap 128GB SSD for PNY 20, installed LinuxMint and it booted fine. But the system only had 1GB of RAM, so there was a lot to swap out. I installed this kit and now the system runs much faster. It's a 32-bit system, so it can't address all 4GB (free -m says 3,211GB), but it's still better than it was. I burn it within 24 hours. I will update if anything goes wrong.

Pros
  • Waiting
Cons
  • Waiting too long
