Advantages: Guaranteed , excellent help with choosing, superb service Disadvantages: None
RAM it is. I buy a book and read some magazines and look on the internet. (Going to shops was frightening - apart from feeling stupid, the price can be off-putting).
There are millions of them!!! How do I know what to buy? How many MB can the PC take? How much is in? What speed? Is it SDRAM, SODIMM, DDR etc?
All I know is that I need more!!!
Help!
Then I found www.crucial.com and it all became clear (well, simple is a better word).
You feed in your PC details and they tell you what was in it originally. Not only that, but they also give you a list of memory sticks (getting technical now!) that are guaranteed to be compatible and also guaranteed for life.
If you are unsure of one or two bits of technical information needed to make the final choice, they tell you how to find it or you can download a little bit of software that whizzes ...
Advantages: Good Make, Good Value Disadvantages: None, Its memory.
At the end of the day memory is memory, whether it is a generic brand or Kingston or Crucial isn't really going to affect things that much.
However when choosing your memory be aware of what kind of memory it is you are choosing.
The first thing is MB - MegaByte. This could be 128, 256, 512 and so on the more Megabyte you have the quicker your system should run.
As this is 256MB you have a good size for running normal everyday tools such as Outlook, Internet and Word.
However if you are into CAD drawing, using your PC as server or intense games you might want to look at 512MB.
The next thing is memory speed. In this case it is 333mhz (PC2700).
It could be 266mhz or 400mhz. Obviouslt the higher the better. However in order to really utilise this you need to have a processor that has a front side bus of the same or faster ...
Advantages: Lightweight, small, durable, pleasant on the eye Disadvantages: Case can get small scratches on it
I have personally purchased one of the flash drives as I am an IT student and i need to transfer a lot of data.
First of all, these memory sticks are very lightweight and really small. It includes a split ring which is on the stick which can be attached to any keyring to prevent losing it.
This specific flash drive has 256MB of memory space on it. This is quite a substantial amount if you are going to hold files, folders and small graphics on it. It is very fast at transferring files, there is hardly any need to wait around. It is nearly an instant transfer.
I wouldn't recommend this flash drive for anyone that was going to use it for very large graphical files and to hold lots of music files. Music files are very large and this flash drive is likely to hold around 2-3 albums worth. That is what i have found from my own ...
