I have a Toshiba Satellite 115-S123 Laptop that supposedly uses Kingston (KTT3614/256) 256MB PC2100 SDRAM 133mhz memory. Will this Amazon item work in my laptop? I am not familiar with memory.

Thanks

Already looking to upgrade the memory?

If your laptop takes SDRAM, then DDR RAM will not work. SDRAM is the memory that runs at 1x the clock speed (100MHz or 133MHZ typically) and DDR RAM runs at 2x the clock speed (200MHz or 266MHz usually). So in short, no it will not work.

Not a bad price for DDR SODIMM's though, good find!

I think that should work. I took out the RAM from my Toshiba S123 and it was 256MB DDR 266Mhz CL2 PC2100S-20330.

Good price. Too bad shipping is a total scam ($6.99 plus $0.50/lb).

OD doesn't sell the item on their own site but of course TechDepot does. Price is the same but shipping is equally ridiculous.

Actually, its cheaper to order from Tech Depot since shipping is $6.50 vs. $7.50 with Amazon. Unless shipping varies from state to state. Atleast you can use eBates with Tech Depot though...

check kingston's site they have free shipping there.

Edit:
Sorry they want $90 for this.

back in stock at $54.99.. free shipping

same price as crucial.. but if that $5 off $35 (whatever it was) is still around, decent deal at $49.99

wondering if i should blow my $20 GC on this. hmm..
