Thinkpad 600E RAM

PiE

I was under the impression that Thinkpad 600E's are only capable of taking PC-66 SO-DIMM RAM, and the lads in #tech.ie confirmed it for me. But I emailed shop4memory.com a few days ago using the Quote form on their site and they've just now emailed me back saying that this stick of PC-100 RAM would work:

At €53 I'd love to get it, laptop needs a hefty kick up the arse tbh. So if anyone can tell me for sure that it'd work, please do let me know :]

it will work fine but AT pc66 speed only

its cheaper to buy the faster memory...it maybe cheaper still to but pc133,

I put a 256mb pc133 into a PII running pc66 memory once coz it was all I had . the pII found half the ram only and happily ran it at half the speed for 6 months when I came back with a 128Mb stick of pc100 to replace it.

Those 600s will take almost any kind of memory. The 100MHz will work, but only at 66MHz. I have a load of 64Meg sticks for 600Es lying about, if you want.....

www.crucial.com/uk for memory
you can step through the purchase - to a specific system too

PiE

Cheers lads.

Jaden, wouldn't happen to have a 128mb stick would you?

sceptre

Crucial will probably be cheaper (and Micron test every stick of memory which is nice)

I tried a 600E model at random and 128 megs came out at under 33 euros. Add 8 for delivery and you've saved 12.

www.crucial.com/eu for euro prices. They use UPS and you'll have it in two days. Heartily recommended

PiE

Aye, I probably will go for the Crucial memory (thx for the link Micro), but if Jaden happens to have a 128mb stick lying around...

Jaden

Just 64's I'm afraid. Crucail is what you need. BTW, I have loads of spare parts, if ever you need any.....

LoGiE

Jaden just wondering if you also have parts for a TP 600X?
Ultrabay HD Holders/HD, DVD drives etc?

PiE

...or internal/external floppy drives?

Jaden

Loads.....

LoGiE

Sorry Jaden were u talking to me or PiE? would take a Ultrabay HD Holder and HD if u have them knocking around.
