A small outline dual inline memory module (SODIMM) consists of a number of memory components (usually black) that are attached to a printed circuit board (usually green). SODIMMs get their name because they are smaller and thinner than regular DIMMs. The gold pins on the bottom of the SODIMM provide a connection between the module and a socket on a larger printed circuit board. The pins on the front and back of a SODIMM are not connected.
200-pin SODIMMs are used to provide DDR and DDR2 SDRAM memory for notebook computers. 200-pin SODIMMs are available in PC2700 DDR SDRAM, PC3200 DDR SDRAM, DDR2 PC2-6400 SDRAM, DDR2 PC2-5300 SDRAM, DDR2 PC2-4200 SDRAM and DDR2 PC2-3200 SDRAM. To use DDR or DDR2 memory, your system motherboard must have 200-pin SODIMM slots and a DDR- or DDR2-enabled chipset. A DDR or DDR2 SODIMM will not fit into a standard SDRAM SODIMM socket. (Information about which memory technology your system uses is included in the Crucial Memory Advisor™ tool.)
The number of black components on a 200-pin SODIMM can vary, but it always has 100 pins on the front and 100 pins on the back, for a total of 200. 200-pin SODIMMs are approximately 2.625 inches long and 1.25 inches high, though the heights can vary. Like 144-pin SODIMMs, 200-pin SODIMMs have one small notch within the row of pins; however, the notch on the 200-pin SODIMMs is closer to the left side of the module.

Love the Crucial memory selector, makes sure that you're ordering the correct RAM.
Easily upgraded my Dell D610 Laptop in 5-10 mins.
Went from 512MB to 2GB (Dual Channel Kit) and it's like having a new PC! The difference in useability is much better than I had anticipated.
System was very sluggish before and would frequently grind to a holt. I wasted so much time waiting for the PC to work! Now I can run multiple applications without getting so frustrated!
Look forward to using Crucial again.
A very happy bunny!

The 2gb ram has made such a difference. The laptop was really struggling and everything took forever to run. Installing the new memory has changed the performance and hopefully given the laptop a longer life.[...]
