OWC DDR3 - Módulo - 8 GB - SO DIMM 204-PIN - 1066 MHz / PC3-8500 - CL7 - 1.5 V - sin búfer - non-ECC - para Apple Mac mini (mediados de 2010)

The OWC 8GB DDR3 1066MHz SO-DIMM is an 8GB (8192MB) laptop memory module using DDR3 SDRAM technology. It conforms to the 204-pin SO-DIMM form factor and operates at DDR3-1066 (PC3-8500) speed with a CAS latency of 7. The module requires 1.5V and is non-ECC, dual-rank, designed for operation in temperatures from 0°C to +85°C. It is RoHS compliant and intended to increase a laptop's available RAM for smoother multitasking and improved system responsiveness.

Advantages

The module provides a straightforward memory capacity upgrade for compatible laptops, offering an 8GB increase without requiring system changes. With DDR3-1066 speed and CL7 timing, it balances performance and compatibility for systems that accept PC3-8500 SO-DIMM modules. Dual-rank configuration improves memory throughput on supported platforms while maintaining non-ECC simplicity and standard 1.5V power requirements.

Suitable for

• Upgrading laptop RAM that uses 204-pin DDR3 SO-DIMM modules
• Replacing a single faulty SO-DIMM module in compatible laptops
• Systems that accept DDR3-1066 (PC3-8500) memory
• Users who need 8GB capacity for everyday multitasking and office applications
