Bought this RAM to upgrade my Lenovo X250 from 4GB to 8GB.
3148E08E-8018-402C-BAB5-1261BAF2830C / 64 Bit, Win 10, I5 processor:
Disconnected power cable, in Bios under Config , Power, Disable Built Battery -> Enter, Yes transacted. Waited 3 minutes, removed battery, unscrewed case, disconnected internal power supply (internal cable), replaced RAM plate.
The PC piped 3x on restart and then nothing happened. But when I reinstall the original 4GB RAM board, everything works again. Did I buy the wrong RAM, did I do something wrong or is the RAM damaged?
Thank you very much!
There are two possible reasons that come to mind spontaneously:
1) According to the specifications of your notebook, only DDR3L modules are used. DDR3L works with a voltage of 1.35V. Normal DDR3 works with 1.5V. This RAM module here is DDR3 with 1.5V.
2) I'm not soooo sure how it works with model-specific RAM, but I wouldn't be surprised if such modules can't always be used with other manufacturers. This module is recommended specifically for HP devices. That alone could be a reason why it doesn't work. However, I think it is the former.
