sold: 256 MB high-density SODIMM SDRAM, $18

[qviri]

Hi folks,

I bought this off a forum member without doing my homework. This is a 256 MB high-density 144-pin SODIMM SDRAM. I have not had a chance to fully test it. My X21 powers up with it fine, but only sees 128 MB due to the high-density thing.

I am fairly sure it will work in a T23 or similar, but I cannot guarantee. Therefore, this stick will come as-is. If you're interested, I can run memtest on the 128 MB that my X21 does see, though I do not know how representative the result will be.

18 CAD shipped, buyers in Canada preferred ceteris paribus. Will ship in a standard RAM stick retail box and a padded envelope. Non-CC paypal preferred, but willing to work out other methods.

*Sold, thanks.

Can you post 'em? What product description were you sold? What does it say on the DIMM? What speed is it rated, PC100, PC133?

I have a T22 and would like to replace a 128 with a 256. I am in New York but even a US buyer is better than none, eh?

This is a 256 MB high-density 144-pin SODIMM SDRAM.

So in other words PC133. And the X20/X21, like the T20/T21/T22 and the 600 series require PC100 modules (or so-called "low density" PC133 MHz ones according to another forum thread).

This should work fine in a T23, but will not work in a T22.

I will get the details when I get back home.

I believe the compatibility has to do with the amount of memory in each chip, not speed (I will double check with the working RAM I have in the X21), hence the high-density. That said, as far as I know this will not work in a T22.

for the straight talk. I bought a 133 SODIMM once that said it would work, but did not.

Well thanks for the straight talk. I bought a 133 SODIMM once that said it would work, but did not.

No problem, and I can sympathise, finding the right older RAM can be a challenge sometimes.

This is now sold, thanks!
