DDR3L 1600 SO-DIMM for ThinkPad T530

This 8 GB DDR3L SODIMM runs at 1600 MHz with CL11 timing and 1.35 V operation. The unbuffered, non-ECC module uses a 204-pin interface and a 2Rx8 rank structure. It is built specifically for the Lenovo ThinkPad T530 2359-xxx series and carries a lifetime warranty from Computer Memory Solutions.

Ideal for single-slot upgrades on supported

The kit contains one 8 GB stick, so owners with two populated slots must remove an existing module before installing this one. Users whose T530 already holds the maximum 16 GB across both sockets will gain no capacity by adding this part. Buyers needing ECC, registered buffering, or a different voltage should look at other memory types.

Speed rated at PC3L 12800 DDR3L 1600

The module operates at the 1600 MHz DDR3L standard, identified as PC3L 12800, which is the single specification that determines whether this stick matches the memory controller in the target ThinkPad. If the system requires a different speed grade or voltage, this upgrade will not function correctly.

Questions about this item

Does the 204-pin SO-DIMM fit the ThinkPad T530 2359 memory slot?

Yes, the module uses the standard 204-pin DDR3 SO-DIMM form factor that matches the two slots inside the ThinkPad T530 2359 series.

What is the correct orientation when inserting the CL11 1.35V stick?

Align the notch on the gold edge connector with the key in the slot, press firmly until both side clips click, and verify the system shows 1600 MHz in BIOS.

Will the 2Rx8 rank configuration require replacement if I add a second module?

The 2Rx8 organisation works with the T530's maximum 16 GB limit, so a second identical stick can be added later without replacing this one.
