Laptop DDR2 SODIMM 1GB module

This new Kingston 1GB DDR2 SODIMM runs at 667MHz with CL5 latency. It uses an unbuffered 1.8V design in a 200-pin form factor for notebook memory slots. The module is organised as 2Rx8 with 128Mx64 density.

Suits older DDR2 notebooks needing a single 1GB

Buyers who need more than 1GB per slot should look elsewhere. Systems that require registered or ECC memory cannot use this unbuffered module. Laptops limited to slower DDR2 speeds may not gain the full 667MHz rating.

667MHz DDR2 speed rating

The PC5300 667MHz specification determines whether this module matches the motherboard memory bus. Verify the notebook accepts DDR2 SODIMMs at this frequency before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does the 200-pin SODIMM slot in my laptop match this module?

Yes, the module uses a standard 200-pin DDR2 SODIMM edge connector that fits any laptop slot built for DDR2 PC5300 memory.

Do I need to change any BIOS settings after inserting the 1.8 V stick?

No, the JEDEC-standard 1.8 V DDR2 module is detected automatically; the only common mistake is not seating the stick fully until the side clips click.

Will the CL5 timing require a future firmware update to stay stable?

No, CL5 is a fixed hardware latency; the module has no firmware, so no updates are needed and no timing degradation occurs over time.
