k215b memory upgrade

goten_151 — Sat, 19 Feb 2005 15:05:24 GMT

Hi all i'm going to upgrade my memory, due to 1 module dying a week after i got the thing.
The current ram is Pc2100, and the spec of the sony site says the ram type is pc2100, but when i viewed the accessories for the model it showed my pc2700 ram, whats going on?
The specs
The Specs

The Ram it shows me

any ideas please?

& buying pc2700 speed if it will only run at pc2100 is kinda skanky

i would suggest putting mudules with the same memory size to get the best performance. I think the pc2700 speed will work fine and the bust speed of ur laptop will tell u if it will work at this speed or at pc2100. The faulty mamory should be under warranty as well.

OK, excuse me for this but my opinion is

NO VAIO COMPUTER USE ORIGINALY SONY RAM !
I WOULD NEVER BUY ORIGINALY SONY RAM !
ORIGINAL SONY RAM IS TO EXPENSIVE !
YOU CAN BUY RAM FROM OTHER MANUFACTURERS FOR THE HALF PRICE !

HERE ARE, FOR EXAMPLE OTHER MANUFACTURER

KINGSTON
G.E.I.L
SAMSUNG
CORSAIR
MDT
INFINEON
MAY BE I HAVE FORGOTTON OTHER MANUFACTURES,
BUT THE PRICES FROM SONY ARE DEFINITELY TO HIGH !

THAT ONLY ORIGINALY SONYVAIO RAM WORKS ON SONYVAIO PCs IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST LIE OF THE " VAIO-WORLD " !

Too True Seb

I could not believe Sony prices!!!! As it happens, Sony don't even fit their RAM to their laptops - mine has 2 Samsung RAMs....
