Overall Review: Used this 8gb stick, with an ADATA SU800 SSD to upgrade a friend's Celeron n2955u based laptop from 2014...which was "so slow". The SSD dropped boot time from about 3 minutes, to about 15 seconds...no exaggeration. 5400 RPM drives give many laptops a bad name. The 8GB, up from stock 2GB, cut hard faults when opening & running Chrome from about 400/sec to about 2 to 4 per second...if any. This PC was so slow in stock form, it was ready for recycle bin. These 2 upgrades will make this a viable PC for a few more years. It runs just about as fast as an current I3 with 4GB ram (and SSD) when web surfing, emailing, etc.
