No. PC2700 DDR-SDRAM != PC2-4200 DDR2-SDRAM. Notice there's a bunch of 2's in there. DDR is backwards compatible with DDR, and DDR2 with DDR2, but not between the two.

Do you know what the manufacturer is for that? Gee, I wish the 1GB DDR SoDIMM has a price like this DDR2!

does anyone know if this one works with IBM T43 (2668 model)? I was told it is kind of picky with CL #. Thanks

It simply WILL NOT WORK. It's like trying to stick your car key into lock in the front door to your house.
Actually, I had a car once where the ignition was so stripped out that it would actually work the other way around (i.e.: I accidentally started it with my house key at least once).

Fortunately such a thing shouldn't happen on memory keying. Should it actually happen, that means your computer must be broken badly.

Will it work in Dell Inspiron 6000? I think it will but there is so little information that I better ask people here.

Great Deal. In for one and green for you. Much rather pay for shipping than for gas!

Bought it about a month ago. It works well with my T43p 2668.

Thanks man. Appreciate the information. You know, I have stopped reading tomshardware for a year and a half and I cant make sense of half the things in the market no more... (I know it is wrong grammer, but we speak it this way where I come from )....

but T43p has something different with T43 right?
So anybody can make sure this RAM can work fine with T43 2668?
I bought an osu design 2668AJU from lenovo, only 256MB RAM inclusive.....

For everybody who is concerned whether this RAM will work on thier laptops or not:
This link PC World Linkprovides some reviews of this memory and the laptops in which they were installed. Some reviews said the DDR memory worked just fine in machines that called out DDR2. DDR2 is substantially more expensive. There are many sites that help you find the correct memory for your machine. Crucial , Kingston, Memory4less, you can also check your manufacturer's web site for me Dell Memory Selector. FYI: according to the PC World Link, this worked fine in my machine Insprion 6000. But I wanted the full dual channel performance and I bought mine from Zipzoomfly that included free 2nd day FedEx. But, if this is the correct memory for you - this is a great deal. Green for OP.
