ThinkPad L-Series DDR3 kit

This 8 GB kit contains two 4 GB DDR3 SODIMM modules rated at 1333 MHz with CL7 timings. It is built for Lenovo ThinkPad L412, L420, L512 and L520 notebooks that accept 204-pin unbuffered memory at 1.5 V.

Fits two SO-DIMM slots

Each stick uses a 2Rx8 organisation and major-brand chips without a heat spreader. The non-ECC, unbuffered design drops straight into the two memory sockets of the compatible ThinkPad models, leaving no extra cabling or power connections to manage.

Two matched sticks in the box

The package supplies a pair of 4 GB modules so the laptop can run in dual-channel mode. No software, drivers or additional accessories are included beyond the memory sticks themselves.

Questions about this item

Will the 1.5V voltage of these DDR3 modules increase heat or fan noise during all-day use?

The modules run at the standard 1.5V for DDR3 1333MHz without a heat spreader, so thermal output matches typical SO-DIMM behaviour in the ThinkPad L412, L420, L512 and L520.

Do the ThinkPad L412, L420, L512 or L520 need a specific BIOS version or firmware update before installing this 2Rx8 kit?

Computer Memory Solutions guarantees compatibility with the listed ThinkPad models as shipped; no separate firmware step is mentioned for these 204-pin DDR3 1333MHz CL7 modules.

My L520 currently has a single 4GB stick — can I add just one 4GB module from this pair?

The kit contains two 4GB 2Rx8 SO-DIMMs; you can install one module alongside your existing stick provided the slot supports 2Rx8 density and the system accepts mixed-rank configurations.
