Capacity and speed

This Kingston KVR16LS11/8 module provides 8 GB of DDR3L memory running at 1600 MHz with a CAS latency of 11. It uses the 204-pin SO-DIMM form factor standard for laptops and operates at the JEDEC low voltage of 1.35 V.

Who this suits and who it does not

The stick fits any notebook that accepts unbuffered, non-ECC DDR3L SO-DIMMs at this speed and voltage. Systems that require registered memory, ECC error correction, standard 1.5 V DDR3 only, or a different pin count cannot use this module.

Deciding specification

The critical figure is the 1.35 V DDR3L rating combined with 1600 MHz speed; the laptop’s memory controller must support this exact voltage and frequency pair for the module to function correctly.

Questions about this item

Will the 204-pin SO-DIMM fit my laptop's DDR3L slot?

The module uses the standard 204-pin SO-DIMM form factor for DDR3L, matching laptop slots built to that specification.

Do I need to change any BIOS settings when installing this 1.35V DDR3L module?

Most laptops detect the 1.35V JEDEC profile automatically; the common mistake is leaving an old 1.5V module in the second slot, which can force the system to run at the higher voltage.

Does this unbuffered non-ECC stick require any firmware updates or periodic maintenance?

No firmware updates or scheduled maintenance are needed; the memory is a passive component that either works or is replaced if it fails.
