A perfect fit, April 13, 2007
(Albuquerque, NM United States) - Although this is not the same kit number as the one on Crucial's website, it worked perfectly in my MacBook. Took me 5 minutes to install. And it came in 2 days!

C1 - This review is for 2GB (2x 1GB sticks) of Crucial 200-Pin DDR2 SODIMM (PC2 5300 / DDR2-667)
dual channel laptop memory. The memory was installed and utilized in a Dell Inspiron E1505 laptop (Core Duo T2500) that was manufactured mid-2006, and uses Microsoft Windows Media Center Edition (XP SP-2) as the main operating system. The installation was painless and took less than 5 minutes due to the easy access to the slots. I used nitrile rubber gloves to handle the memory in an effort to minimize contamination and static electricity. Once installed, the BIOS will ask you to confirm the changes to the memory capacity. I verified that the SODIMM sticks were indeed DDR2-667 / 2GB total. Performance-wise, I did not notice any differences in boot-up or loading of applications using the Crucial RAM over the original 1GB (512MB x2 DDR2-533). I did want 2GB of RAM to prevent XP from using the swap file when using memory intensive applications. Cost-wise, Newegg offered this "kit" at the lowest price and I am amazed at how inexpensive the memory was for a 2-year old laptop. I highly recommend you check and see how much it would cost to max out the RAM in your laptop because it is worth it. 1-1.5 GB will make life easier in XP, but 2GB (the max for my E1505) is icing on the cake. 512MB of RAM for XP is really pushing it but still feasible. Pros: Inexpensive, Crucial stands for high quality / lifetime warranty against defects, decent performance, and painless installation. Cons: Not as fast as the high-performance brands (Mushkin, OCZ) but there are other real bottlenecks in a laptop besides the RAM (such as video card, CPU, hard drive, motherboard chipsets). Overall: The Crucial 2GB kit offers significant value and if I had realized it was so inexpensive, I would have upgraded years ago. He actually regretted not buying the crucial 2gb sodimm earlier! Don't let this be your regret!
Check out the stocks at Amazon before they run out! With such great discounts, crucial 2gb sodimm is running out fast! Hurry !!!!!!
If stocks run out you wouldn't know when you will be able to buy them...and we all hate waiting games !!!
