    I bought several things from Best Buy, including 16GB of DDR3 Ram, Samsung Galaxy cell phone, Ethernet cables and a Lenovo G50-45 laptop computer. I installed the 16GB of Ram in the Lenovo G50-45 laptop and it was recognized right away. The system works great with Windows 10 and Windows Server 2008.

    These little RAM sticks gave my MACBOOK PRO Mid 2012 model the boost of energy it needed to make it perform even better than it did when it was new. For $50, it was well worth it!

    Buying directly from Apple is incredibly expensive, so its nice to know there are third party sellers that have good solid working parts that perform as well or better than factory. The kit I bought worked immediately. Took me from 16gb to 32gb in less than 10 minutes.

    I added the memory to my IMac to speed it up to run Photo Shop and Lightroom at the same time. It did the trick. Great service from the employee who dropped the price as far as he could. Better deals online but I was in a pinch.

    This memory was easy to install, plug and play. It gave my brother-in-laws computer a boost. He has been complaining to my sister about his HP computer running slow and I suggested this memory since we got it a low price. Its great and does the job.

    Before purchasing this additional RAM for my Mac PowerBook Pro it was beginning to operate slowly... mostly due to the graphic programs I use. After having the Geek Squad install the upgraded RAM into the powerbook it now works better than it ever did!

    This RAM is perfect and very much compatible to my DELL XPS L502X. But please be informed that this model of DELL laptop supports only 8 GB of RAM. The additional RAM size beyond 8 GB is not supported even if you have available memory slots.

    Using it in may Macbook Pro and it really works well. The only issue has been when reinstalling the OS on a new hard drive, I have to replace it with the original RAM (a really bizarre Apple quirk that I still cannot explain). Otherwise, I have enjoyed it.
