Awesome Product but Check the Specs!!!,
I bought this RAM for my brand new early 2011 macbook pro, with a 2.3 ghz core i7 processor. I installed the ram and my mac was off the wall fast! But i noticed the laptop getting very hot and after about 10 minutes the computer crashed, yah, a mac, crashing. I turned it back on and read the error report, a simple kernel crash, which can happen after new hardware is installed, so I just carried on. It happened about 20 minutes later, and then kept happening continuously. After about 5 minutes my laptop would be extremely hot and then would crash shortly after. I ran memtest and got a ton of errors, and thinking it was a bad memory set that I had received I called Kingston. It turns out that the macbooks only support up to 1333 mhz RAM, and 1866 overclocks by itself, runs the fans at too high of a speed and then crashes the kernel. I returned the RAM to Amazon for a full refund (and amazon is awesome about returning products!) and ordered two 1333 mhz 4gb sticks. Moral of the story: check to make sure the product is compatible, if it is, buy this RAM, its amazing!

Works as advertised, Great performance.,
Was worried about reliability at first, and ran memtest overnight. Found out there were no issues.
The RAM acts perfectly as advertised, CAS 11 at 931MHz DDR rate = 1866MHz ).
Plug and play, as easy as it comes, just plug it in, and enjoy the increased performance.
Running winsat memformal in command prompt showed an increase from 17000MB/s to 24000MB/s (from DDR3-1333 16GB)
and WEI jumped from 7.6 to 7.9.
Awesome product, thanks for a great product, Kingston!

Lenovo Thinkpad T420,
Fits my laptop well with UEFI enabled running on Win 7 Ultimate. You will not get the full speed of this rams but good to know you have it ready for future proofing. You will get a little more out of it with i7 processors, for sure they will come up with higher clock speeds in the future. One of the more expensive rams but should come down when they come up with the next faster clock rates. Good if you are an “Early Adapter”.
Tip: The second ram slot is under the keyboard.
