It is safe to switch memory from Z61 to R400?

#1 Post by sapibobo » Mon Apr 06, 2009 11:12 pm

Dear all

Currently i have Z61 9451-A21 (T2500 2GHz) with 2 X 1 GB RAM. I am planning to take out 1 GB and put it to R400 7443-TGA (P8400 2.26Ghz).
Since i am not quite familiar with detail specs, can i put the 1 GB RAM from that Z61 to R400?

Any help will be very appreciated. Thanks
T410i - 2518 : Core i5-430M, 6GB RAM, 1440X900 14.1", 500 GB Momentus XT, Intel HD, Windows 7 Pro 64.

I think you meant to say "Z61 is DDR2, T400 is DDR3, so totally no"
