8GB DDR3L SODIMM for Latitude 15 5000

This 8GB DDR3L SODIMM is built for the Latitude 15 5000 series with 5th Gen Intel Core processors. It adds a single 8GB module to one of the two available slots. The 204-pin form factor fits the laptop's memory socket directly. It targets owners of the E5550 model who need more memory for daily workloads.

Capacity headroom and limits

The kit provides 8GB in a single stick, leaving the second slot free for another module. The platform supports a maximum of 16GB across both sockets, so total capacity can be doubled. Running this stick alone suits typical office tasks and light multitasking. Heavier workloads or virtual machines will benefit from filling the second slot to reach the 16GB ceiling.

DDR3L 1600 interface constraints

The module operates at DDR3L 1600 (PC3L 12800) with CL11 timing at 1.35V. It is unbuffered, non-ECC and uses a 2Rx8 organisation. The DDR3L standard tops out at this speed and voltage, so no higher frequency or lower latency is possible on this platform. Builders needing faster memory or ECC support must choose a different system.

Questions about this item

Will this DDR3L 1600 MHz SODIMM run at the correct speed alongside the existing memory in my Latitude 15 5000 E5550?

The module is rated for DDR3L 1600 (PC3L 12800) at 1.35 V. The system will set the memory controller to the highest common speed supported by all installed sticks, so it will operate at 1600 MHz if the original memory is also 1600 MHz, or step down to match a slower module.

How can I confirm the new CM10246412800SODRL stick is detected and running at CL11 11-11-11 timings after installation?

Open Task Manager or a tool such as CPU-Z and check the Memory and SPD tabs. You should see 8 GB recognised, a DRAM frequency of 800 MHz (double-data-rate 1600), CAS latency 11 and timings 11-11-11 at 1.35 V.

Does the package include only the 204-pin SODIMM, or are tools and additional parts supplied?

The box contains one 8 GB DDR3L SODIMM memory stick. No screwdrivers, anti-static wrist straps or extra components are included.
