Compatibility guidance
- Install only in a 262-pin DDR5 SO-DIMM host; DDR4 modules and desktop DIMMs use different electrical/mechanical interfaces.
- Confirm the laptop supports 16 GB per slot and the module's single-rank x8 organization. A platform with a lower limit can downclock the memory or reject it.
- Kingston lists a JEDEC SPD profile at 5200 MT/s; no XMP/EXPO profile is specified. Check the CPU and firmware data-rate ceiling.
- Use the system service guide for slot/channel placement and maximum capacity. Observe battery isolation and ESD procedures.
