    LENOVO IDEAPAD 3 17IIL05 - Upgade RAM past 12GB?

    Thanks for piquing my curiosity. Crucial Memory seems to indicate maximum memory is 20GB. I have an IdeaPad with similar and have contemplated upgrading the RAM; it currently has 4GB onboard and a 4GB in SODIMM slot.

    I still have a couple of external modems, but don't have duplicates of them. May need to check if that old bbs is still working. 😂🤣 I may have a 33.6K US Robotics that I may be able to part with?

    Recent visit to Microcenter - what it was like inside

    MicroCenter is my Stop and Shop for PC hardware, been to 3 of 4 stores in NY. Just went to the one in Brooklyn for an Intel AX200 wireless kit. Back in the days, CompUSA and Circuit City, rebates galore.

    Regularly downloading large files to SSD

    Do the math, 8-10GB a day? On basis of 10GB a day, 1 TB in 100 days, so 3.66 TB per year for argument sake. This should be way below the TBW of the warranty of 3-5 years. In a nutshell, you should be fine. Consider the type of NAND and the warranty.

    WTB: 2x 16GB DDR4 SO-DIMMs, any speed

    Will it benefit from faster memory? Nothing faster supported by the processor, at least according to Intel. https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/88967/intel-core-i76700hq-processor-6m-cache-up-to-3-50-ghz/specifications.html

    The [H]ardForum Perpetual Freebies Thread

    My mistake, I just tried it, it was a Motorola charger, but not for Startac :( I looked it up and turned out it was a charger for the Motorola Nextel i1000; was wondering why it didn't fit in my Startac. I will have to search the house again next time when I am back.

    Anyone dealed with MSI rebates before?

    One thing I learned with rebates, watch that billing address and shipping address. If they are different, they may deny it. I fought Gigabyte on that note one time, they caved and sent the rebate. Glad to hear you are getting your rebate.

    Found the Startac charger on Sunday afternoon, but given the age, the plastic/rubber that insulates the wire has cracked or come off a bit. Don't have a picture now.
