Product Description
A small outline dual inline memory module (SODIMM) consists of a number of memory components (usually black) that are attached to a printed circuit board (usually green). SODIMMs get their name because they are smaller and thinner than regular DIMMs. The gold pins on the bottom of the SODIMM provide a connection between the module and a socket on a larger printed circuit board. The pins on the front and back of a SODIMM are not connected. 200-pin SODIMMs are used to provide DDR and DDR2 SDRAM memory for notebook computers. 200-pin SODIMMs are available in PC2700 DDR SDRAM, PC3200 DDR SDRAM, DDR2 PC2-6400 SDRAM, DDR2 PC2-5300 SDRAM, DDR2 PC2-4200 SDRAM and DDR2 PC2-3200 SDRAM. To use DDR or DDR2 memory, your system motherboard must have 200-pin SODIMM slots and a DDR- or DDR2-enabled chipset. A DDR or DDR2 SODIMM will not fit into a standard SDRAM SODIMM socket. (Information about which memory technology your system uses is included in the Crucial Memory AdvisorTM tool.) The number of black components on a 200-pin SODIMM can vary, but it always has 100 pins on the front and 100 pins on the back, for a total of 200. 200-pin SODIMMs are approximately 2.625 inches long and 1.25 inches high, though the heights can vary. Like 144-pin SODIMMs, 200-pin SODIMMs have one small notch within the row of pins; however, the notch on the 200-pin SODIMMs is closer to the left side of the module.

Have you bought a netbook? Running Windows 7 Starter? Only came with a miserly 1GB of memory? Seems to run "a bit slow"? What you want is something like this...
Windows 7 starter like most modern OS's runs at its best with more memory, and to be blunt 1GB is the bare minimum for a working system. Its like having a new car and only fitting a 10 Litre fuel tank, you can use it for a bit, but you'll never make the most of it, until you've got that bigger fuel tank.
Quick review: This memory is made by a well respected memory manufacturer. I've used 2 of these so far to upgrade both my wife, and sons netbooks, it really does make a difference, as long as you take care of a little basic computer maintenance like regular defragging hard drive, registry cleans etc. Or maybe you are looking to upgrade an old laptop running windows XP/98 etc. This is probably the cheapest, easiest and quickest way to make things run faster.
With 2GB your netbook will start to run closer to the speed of a normal computer, and thats where this comes into play. Its basic things that you will see the most improvement in, like starting windows, opening programmes etc., it all makes windows just a bit more usable in everything you do. Its a real, noticeable improvement.
DONT PAY FOR SOMEONE TO DO THIS! (unless you enjoy being ripped off)
This will take all of 3 mins to do as an upgrade, and requires nothing more than a small x point screwdriver. Its not scary to do, its not difficult to do, and yes even you can do it.
Heres a quick how to:
Order one of these, and wait for the posty.
Start by TURNING OFF your netbook, unplug it then remove the battery.
Then flip your netbook over, and look an the underneath.... Read more ›

I bought this for my Samsung N150 which I found to be running fairly slowly even from day one. However after purchasing this RAM, which was easy to insert, everything has started to run much quicker.
I would highly recommend this to anyone with a 1GB netbook.

Works great in my new Samsung N210 10.1-inch Netbook. Helps to improve the speed and load times of applications.
This ram is also 6400 rated, which is faster than most available.

I recently bought a Samsung N150 Plus netbook for travelling. Great little machine, but the quick 30-40 secs to desktop was let down by the 4-5 mins then taken for everything to load, during which time other applications struggled to perform. Fitting the extra memory is a doddle for anyone with a tiny screwdriver, and it's well worth the cost. The netbook is now fully ready after a little more than 2 mins and, even better, it functions pretty well during startup, putting loading very much in the background. I also have the impression that operations are generally a bit snappier, but have no objective evidence of this.
Just over 30 quid is money well spent for the startup improvement alone. Highly recommended.

I bought this for my HP Mini 210 Netbook, and had it fitted in minites. The netbook needs 2GB of memory, as the 1GB it came with is no way enough. The netbook is much faster now, so full marks for this product.

I bought one of these for my Asus EeePC 1001PX 10" netbook, as I thought it could do with a boost in speed. The upgrade arrived within 3 days, and was well packaged in an anti-static box with installation instructions included.
Installation took only minutes. The only problem I experienced was that on boot-up, my computer failed to recognise the installed memory, and was still showing only 1GB in the control panel. I did a Google search, and it turned out this is quite a common problem with this machine.
The remedy is to shut down, then restart whilst repeatedly tapping the F2 key, until you get the BIOS screen. the new memory should show up on the first screen. In my case it didn't register in the BIOS initially, but I proceeded to the second part anyway, which was to exit BIOS & save all changes (you can do this by pressing F10).
When I rebooted, the memory showed up correctly as the full 2GB, both in the BIOS and in the control panel. I've now noticed a marked increase in speed, even with such things as scrolling and switching between windows when I have multiple applications running.
So, I'd definately recommend this upgrade. Don't be disheartened if your computer doesn't recognise the additional memory initially, it's just a glitch. Just follow the above procedure and all should be well.

I ordered this through Amazon from SCALA-TECHNOLOGY and it arrived in two days. fitting was easy and after a system reboot twice, win 7 finally recognised the memory. I upgraded from 1 gb to a 2gb stick as i only have one slot in my new Asus EEE PC T91MT. Perfect and thanks to Scala ( who's customer feedback i managed to mess up, sorry!)for an excellent service and communication.
