Hi,
I am planning to purchase the following DDR3 RAM for my W520 system -
G.SKILL 8GB (2 x 4GB) 204-Pin DDR3 SO-DIMM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10600) Laptop Memory Model F3-10600CL9D-8GBSQ

Please guide me, whether it will work or not?

Re: W520 Compatible RAM
Yips , should work nicely !!
( used to have those in my older T510 and W510 - worked nicely)
now I have (see sign) ... some of these..... (32GB) If you can afford these - trust me your W Series will ROCK !!
in my view NEWEGGG rocks - best supplier on web - never had one issue with then since 2004!! ( nope I dont work for them .... just stating facts ....)
side note - not sure how you be using YOUR W Series - mine is mainly used as a desktop for tons of VMs + ADOBE SUIITE + SuSe _OSX_.....whole lots of db work - eg I cna load 4mil rows of tables contents into my laptop in mins !! ..... blah blah...
Hope this helps
