Comments about Crucial 1GB Upgrade for a Dell Optiplex 170L Series System:
I recently purchased a retired Dell Optiplex from my employer. Its existing memory was small as it had previously been used on a network and primarily for MS Office applications. My goal was to convert this as an additional work station in a home office setting. However, the upgrade in memory has easily made it a front line unit; not just a backup. Thanks Crucial!
Comments about Crucial 1GB Upgrade for a Dell Optiplex 170L Series System:
I was told that I needed more RAM to run a program that I use in my small business and was directed to Crucial.com. I am not a computer whiz and was a little nervous about doing this but crucial did all the work in scanning my system and basically telling me what I needed for my specific computer. It was extremely easy to make the order. I have also never installed RAM before. It is a piece of cake and anyone can do it. Up to this point we have no performance or campatability issues. Seems to be working good. If you are thinking of upgrading your current system instead of buying a new computer I would recommend using Crucial.

Updated 12 computers as they were quite old and starving for memory. Pulled multiple slices of low rent and replaced with 1G slices, what a differance. All slices worked great.

Comments about Crucial 1GB Upgrade for a Dell Optiplex 170L Series System:
The new RAM restored my PC from junk to useable. I only wish that I had run crucial's tool that would have told me I had two 250 MB chips instead of one 500 MB chip. If I decided to purchase a second 1 GB chip later, I would go back to Crucial.
Comments about Crucial 1GB Upgrade for a Dell Optiplex 170L Series System:
It made the computer workable and due to the cost of the upgrade saved the company the cost of a new computer, IT costs to coordinate with server and employee downtime.
Comments about Crucial 1GB Upgrade for a Dell Optiplex 170L Series System:
This old machine was set aside by its original owner who had no idea why it was so slow. With only 256MB of memory, it just wouldn't run XP Pro SP3. Now it is a lightning fast business machine for our Church office.
Thanks, Crucial!

I spent an hour trying to buy this item from Dell. After I was quoted and exorbitent price for two it turned out they didn't have any in stock and it would take 8 weeks to get them in. Then after the guy wouldn't take no for an answer he managed to find one (still of no use to me). Two minutes after finishe dwith the Dell guy I had ordered exactly what I wanted and it arrived two days later.
