    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: price, large capacity

    Weaknesses:none for the price

    Overall Evaluation: Most laptops have only two slots for memory sticks. Therefore, you could not add more memory modules if the two slots have been preoccupied by two 512MB cards, unless you replace them. With today's applications and operating systems like Windows Vista, one needs at least 2GB of memory to take advantage of the fast CPU, otherwise, the memory becomes the bottleneck. Note that most laptops have operating systems installed that can only recognize a maximum of 3GB of RAM. So you have 1GB got wasted with this kit. Although the 3GB size limit might be solved in the future, one would still be better off by buying two 2GB sticks in the kit like this OCZ one than buy one 2GB and one 1GB sticks separately. Besides, you might get 5% increase in performance by having the two matching memory modules.

    Strengths: great power add on for your laptop

    Weaknesses:none

    Overall Evaluation: works perfectly on Dell Inspiron 1520. I have Vista Ultimate installed and this memory is "enough" for this OS. Also keep in mind if you have 32-bit OS you will see maximum of 3.5GB RAM so dont be surprisedVista performance check gives it 4.8 thats why it got only 4 stars

    Strengths: Faster than other standard pc5300 memory modules, OCZ lifetime warranty.

    Weaknesses:None to speak of

    Overall Evaluation: OCZ is known for their high quality modules as well as thir lifetime warranty on their memory products. Ever since installing this memory my laptop is totally faster and makes it feel like a brand new laptop. This memory is also recognized in 64bit operating systems (windows and linux/unix). I have recommended this product as well to my father in law as well. He watches a lot of streaming video on the internet. You can't go wrong with OCZ! Go for it with confidence!!!

    Strengths: Very good price for relatively good quality

    Weaknesses:Not so much known brand

    Overall Evaluation: Bout this pair (one for each of my two laptops)at the price of $59 after rebate from Frys. So far I don't have any problems! Little confusion due to PC2-5400 as opposed to PC2-5300. They are basically the same!

    Duration of ownership: 3 Weeks

    Strengths: Price. Price. Price.

    Weaknesses:No complaints.

    Overall Evaluation: Some things just don't need explanation or reviewing, and when you end up paying less than fifty clams for 4GB of laptop memory (after rebate), it is very hard to be critical. OCZ have been very prominent in selling RAM in 2007 and their rebates are some of the most competitive and fastest to get back. Their customer support is also VERY VERY good at addressing issues as well as having great user forums. I hope OCZ flourish in 2008 :)
