How to Install Crucial 64GB (2 x 32GB) DDR4 SDRAM Memory Kit
- Prepare your notebook: Shut down the computer completely, unplug the power adapter, and remove the battery if your model allows it. Ground yourself to avoid static discharge by touching a metal surface or using an anti-static wrist strap.
- Access the memory compartment: Flip the bottom panel to locate the memory slots. Consult your notebook’s manual if you’re unsure where the SO-DIMM slots are located or how the panel is secured.
- Remove existing modules (if upgrading from existing RAM): If you’re replacing modules, gently release the clips on either side of the slot to free the existing memory. Remove the old modules by pulling them straight out with even pressure.
- Install the new modules: Take the two 32GB sticks and align each module with the slot’s notch. Insert at a slight angle and press down evenly until the clips snap into place, securing the memory firmly in the socket. Ensure both modules are fully seated and parallel to the slot.
- Power on and verify: Reconnect the battery and power, then boot the notebook. Access the system information in BIOS/UEFI or the operating system to confirm that the full 64GB is detected. If any issues arise, re-seat the modules or run a memory diagnostic to verify stability.
Frequently asked questions
- Q: Will this memory work in my notebook? This 64GB kit uses standard SO-DIMM DDR4 modules designed for modern laptops that support 64GB total memory. Before purchasing, verify your laptop’s maximum memory capacity and available slots in the user manual or through the manufacturer’s support resources.
- Q: What speeds are supported? Speed is determined by the system motherboard, CPU, and BIOS. The kit is designed to run at the highest DDR4 speed supported by your notebook within JEDEC standards. Some systems may run at 2666 MT/s, 3200 MT/s, or other supported speeds. Enabling higher speeds or XMP is generally not applicable to many notebooks; the system will operate at the highest stable speed supported by your hardware.
- Q: Do I need to remove existing memory? Yes, if your goal is to reach 64GB total. Depending on your notebook, you may replace existing modules or insert the two 32GB sticks into available slots. Always ensure the total capacity does not exceed your device’s supported limit and that memory operates in a dual-channel configuration for best performance.
- Q: Is the kit backed by warranty? Yes. Crucial memory kits typically come with a limited lifetime warranty, with terms varying by region and retailer. This coverage helps protect against manufacturing defects and ensures long-term reliability.
- Q: How can I verify compatibility? Check your notebook’s documentation for memory compatibility, including supported capacities and speeds. You can also use Crucial’s compatibility tools or consult your device’s official support resources to confirm that a 64GB DDR4 SO-DIMM kit is appropriate for your model.
