Lenovo ThinkPad T500 Series Upgrade Kit - 8GB (4GBx2) DDR3 PC3-12800

Crucial memory is the same high-quality memory that leading computer manufacturers install in the systems they sell. In fact, because Crucial is a division of Micron, one of the world's largest DRAM manufacturers, it is likely that you already have their memory in your system right now.

While other manufacturers may claim to manufacture memory, they often just assemble modules out of chips made by someone else. Some do not have first-class assembly procedures, and some even use chips that failed to meet the stringent testing requirements of computer manufacturers. Crucial memory, on the other hand, goes through much more rigorous testing procedures than many other brands of memory.

Some memory assemblers choose to accept a certain "defect rate" because it is cheaper to deal with returns than to test every part they sell. This may help their bottom line, but it can be a significant inconvenience for the customers who end up with a bad module. That's why Crucial thoroughly tests EVERY module they sell and only puts their name on the ones that meet their strict standards.

You might expect memory this good to cost a lot more, but that's not the case. As an online memory upgrade provider selling directly from the manufacturer, Crucial memory is often available at lower prices than lower-quality modules.

Bad memory can cause anything from annoying error messages to complete system failures. Why risk it with cheap "mystery" memory when you can trust Crucial to provide you with the same high-quality memory that leading computer manufacturers use? Whether you need a 204-pin SODIMM DDR3-1600 laptop/notebook upgrade or any other memory solution, Crucial has you covered.
