8GB DDR3 1066 kit for Toshiba Satellite A505

This 8 GB kit contains two 4 GB DDR3 1066 CL7 SO-DIMM modules built for Toshiba Satellite A505 models such as the A505-S6004, A505-S6005 and A505-S6007. It targets owners of those laptops who need a straightforward memory upgrade. The modules are unbuffered, non-ECC and run at 1.5 V.

Two matched sticks eliminate single-channel limits

The pair is tested together so the notebook can run in dual-channel mode, doubling memory bandwidth compared with a single module. No extra software or drivers are included; the benefit comes purely from the matched capacity and timing. The package contains only the two memory sticks.

Standard 204-pin SO-DIMM install, check slot access

Installation follows the usual SO-DIMM procedure: power off, remove the battery, open the memory door and press each stick in until the clips latch. On some A505 units the memory compartment is under the keyboard rather than a bottom hatch, which adds disassembly steps. The modules have no heat spreader, so they fit tight spaces without clearance issues.

Questions about this item

Will the 2Rx8 DDR3 SODIMM modules need replacement after a certain number of write cycles?

DDR3 DRAM does not wear out from write cycles like flash storage, so the 2Rx8 modules have no write-cycle replacement interval.

What thermal limit appears first when the 1.5 V CL7 kit runs continuously in a Satellite A505?

The 1.5 V DDR3 SODIMMs are rated for standard JEDEC operating temperatures; the laptop's internal airflow typically reaches its thermal ceiling before the memory does.

How much extra heat and power do the two 4 GB sticks add during all-day use?

Each 4 GB module draws roughly 1.5 V at idle and slightly more under load, adding only a few watts total — well within the Satellite A505's existing cooling capacity.
