Desktop modules that operate at speeds up to 1600 MT/s and have a CL11 latency. It is dual voltage and can operate at 1.35V or 1.5V. It is Unbuffered and is non-ECC. It conforms to the industry standard UDIMM layout of 240 pins and is compatible with computers that take DDR3 UDIMM memory.
A dual inline memory module (DIMM) consists of a number of memory components (usually black) that are attached to a printed circuit board (usually green). The gold pins on the bottom of the DIMM provide a connection between the module and a socket on a larger printed circuit board. The pins on the front and back of a DIMM are not connected to each other.
Each 240-pin DIMM provides a 64-bit data path (72-bit for ECC or registered or Fully Buffered modules).
To use DDR3 memory, your system motherboard must have 240-pin DIMM slots and a DDR3-enabled chipset. This is because a DDR3 SDRAM DIMM will not fit into a standard DDR2 DIMM socket or a DDR DIMM socket.
The number of black components on a 240-pin DIMM can vary, but it always has 120 pins on the front and 120 pins on the back, for a total of 240. 240-pin DIMMs are approximately 5.25 inches long and 1.18 inches high, though the heights can vary. While 240-pin DDR3 DIMMS, 240-pin DDR2 DIMMs, 184-pin DDR DIMMs, and 168-pin DIMMs are approximately the same size, 240-pin DIMMs and 184-pin DIMMs have only one notch within the row of pins.

I knew that changing the slow mechanical hard drive in my Toshiba Satellite laptop would speed things up considerably which it did. Before it took 30 minutes for drive activity to fall below 100% but now the I5 processor has a better match and all background activity falls to normal levels within a couple of minutes from bootup time. I had used Crucial in a previous desktop build but the thing that sold Crucial to me for changing the drive in my laptop is that they had an extremely convenient page that showed the drives (and memory) that were compatible with my particular laptop as well as free software for cloning the hard drive. I wound up buying faster memory from Crucial as well as an SSD. I had two issues worth reporting. I had issues with the cloning software. I could not get it to work under Windows 10. I finally got it to work by making a bootable copy of the software on a thumb drive and booting up and running from that. Once I had figured this out, it was able to clone the larger hard drive to the slightly smaller Crucial SSD with no problems. Once I had installed the SSD, the laptop would boot and run for a while and then lock up. Looking online I saw where others reported the same issue and that removing the cloning software fixed the issue in some cases. I removed the cloning software from Windows and haven't had a hiccup since. The other issue was having to look online for instructions on how to change the SSD and memory in my laptop which turned out not to be completely clear or correct on some items but this is not a negative reflection on Crucial in any way. After installing the Crucial SSD and faster memory my laptop is much more pleasant to use.

I did the scan and found that I could and needed to up grade for a little faster performance. I purchased a new SSD and upgraded my ram from 6 to the max for my computer. Everything went well and I did notice computer is some what faster. However I am having issues in that my computer locks up constantly and the only way to get out of it is to Force shutdown. I did never had that problem with my original hard drive (Western Digital) I am considering reinstalling the original drive, Quite disappointed!

Bought 32 GB RAM in pairs of 16 GB. One pair was OK, but other pair caused my system to crash. Cost me $120 to have the resultant problems diagnosed and fixed.
