What can I say? I'm no computer hardware genius, so whenever I decide to upgrade something that requires taking the side panel off my computer, I hold my breath...and then of course there's the question of whether buying a brand other thanone from the big-name computer manufacturer, carries a risk commensurate with the lower price...well, all I can say is that this RAMinstalled easily, and works fine. When I checked device manager in Windows, it shows the RAM is there, and working...the only suggestion I have for novice installers is this: inserting the RAM cards into the slots takes patience for two reasons (1) the RAM slots are often behind a mass of cords and wiring and are hard to get to - so be patient. (2) The RAM has to be snapped FIRMLY into the sockets, and then locked in place with the tiny plastic flips (You'll understand when you look inside your computer)... Its easy to think they are snapped all the way in, but I've had to try a few times before I was actually successful in getting them to seat 100%. (You cant be sure til you actually restart your computer).
...and of course, be sure you buy RAM that is compatible with your computer model. All of this is doable, and a lot cheaperthan paying somebody to do it for you.
I would give this product five stars if the simple installation suggestions I've made above accompanied the product. After all, we're not all rocket scientists.
