i7 16gb laptop rom

This simple yet helpful application will amongst other aspects tell us what memory our laptop uses therefore supports (remember what we said about not mixing types of DDR?). Click on the 'Memory' tab and also the 'SPD' tab. There you will find the name DDR, DDR2 or DDR3 followed by various odd looking numbers such as the memory frequency and different timings. You will also find the name that corresponds to the sub-type of i7 16gb laptop DDR laptop memory used by your laptop - this will be something along the lines of PC2-5300, PC3200, PC3-8500 etc. Simply piece the two together (i.e. DDR2 PC2-5300, DDR PC2100, DDR3 PC8-8500) and you'll know what to buy and therefore install.

Find out more about DDR, DDR2 and DDR3 SODIMM modules.

We know what memory we need, a logical next step is therefore to decide where to buy it!

In this day and age when the Internet overwhelms in options from where to buy laptop memory it's impossible to provide a definitive list of safe online outlets. For this sole reason we won't journey down this route but instead suggest you buy your laptop memory upgrade from names that have been in business for years and are thus reliable. As for the make of memory you may end up buying from any of these stores, do pay note if it comes with a lifetime manufacturer warranty - almost always it will, but should this not be the case then let this make you think twice about clicking the order button!
