4GB New memory for Dell Latitude D620 D630 D820 DDR2

Replaced the original 1 GB of RAM with this 2 x 2 GB (4 GB total) memory DIMMs has given a new life, and new possibilities to my Dell Latitude D620. Previously, booting, starting applications, even going through the c:\ drive (yes, Windows 7 here) would be an extremely slow and painful process. Drop down menus would take 30 seconds to show up when clicking on buttons, web browsing was amazingly slow, the hard disk was going on and on all the time. The computer was spending all its time swapping/paging between RAM and HD.Now, this 4 GB is in... Starting the laptop takes a fraction of time, and once the desktop is on, the HD is no longer going like it used to be. Starting applications is immensely faster.For the low price of this memory, I took a leap of fate. When you go for "official" Dell recommended memory, it costs 3 to 4 times the price of this pair of sticks. Is this New Old Stock ? Or is this RAM salvaged from recycled computers ? I do not know for sure, the sticks look in excellent condition and the seller advertises this as new. But for sure, they work great so it is a good buy.For Dell Latitude users, when upgrading the RAM, the first time you reboot, you will be greeted with a black screen, a big beep, and then a message that the amount of memory has changed. From there, there seems like nothing can be done to continue with booting. Wait a couple of minutes, and a new line will show up asking to either press F1 (continue) or F2 (setup). Press F1 and you will have Windows (or Linux) starting in no time.

Was looking for cheap memory to upgrade an old Dell that I use for a specific purpose. This set was reasonably-priced, fit right into the D630, and has been running well. Really speeded up the application with which I primarily use it, cutting down on reaches out to the paging file. Well worth the investment, even on an old computer. Hint: One stick goes under the panel under the computer; the other goes under the keyboard. There are a couple of videos on YouTube that show you how to do this, and they are worth watching because, at least for me, it was a simple "watch and learn and look out for that" that made the task as easy as any other memory replacement. I would normally be wary about pulling up a keyboard, and with the video it was quick and painless, for me and the computer.

Great no problem and easy to install

Installed memory - no problem, works fine. But, the packaging was just horrible. The memory was in the usual static resistance plastic envelope which was fine. BUT, the memory was then placed in a large over sized THIN plastic envelope - no bubble wrap or even a simple bubble type envelope. NO packaging what so ever. I was surprised that the memory still worked when I installed it.

perfect for my d-630, snapped right in and ran like a champ.combined with a ne SSD hard drive, it made mylaptop run like a new one.

I had found a video on utube showing me how and I followed it. But I then got the message "The amount of system memory has changed" and a suggestion to reseat the memory" which I did several times, and kept getting that same message. Researching it further online I came to: .... " let the computer sit there for at least 10 minuites max. you will eventually see a dialog stating "press F1 to continue or F2 to enter setup." I let the 'reseat the memory' message sit up on the screen for a few minutes (maybe 3.4) and like magic the computer took care of the problem. I was asked to press F1, which I did, and all became fine. The computer now runs considerably quicker, as expected, and I'm thrilled by that.Nice price, fast delivery, many thanks

I read a lot of reviews on this product, also research other companies. I am so happy this product work for my dell computer. Its running so much faster now. I even got the product ahead of time. Thanks so much!

RAM works great and is as advertised, but sadly of the two RAM sticks, one was dead. The Caps Lock light kept blinking on boot up. I reseated and switched slots, I am sure one is dead. Thankfully I only needed 1.
