16GB DDR3L kit for Alienware M18X R1
This 16GB kit delivers two 8GB DDR3L SO-DIMM modules rated at 1600MHz with CL11 timing. The 204-pin unbuffered design operates at 1.35V and is built specifically for the Alienware M18X R1 notebook series. It adds 16GB of non-ECC memory using major-brand chipsets in a 2Rx8 configuration.
Suits owners expanding to 16GB.
The M18X R1 supports up to 32GB across four sockets, so this 2 x 8GB kit fills half the slots and leaves room for further expansion. Buyers who want the full 32GB in one purchase or who need ECC or registered modules should look at something else. A 64-bit operating system is required to address the total capacity.
Two matched sticks enable dual-channel operation
The package contains two identical 8GB sticks, allowing the notebook's memory controller to run in dual-channel mode for improved bandwidth. No heat spreaders are included, keeping the modules low-profile for tight laptop bays. The limited lifetime warranty from Computer Memory Solutions applies when purchased directly from the manufacturer.

Questions about this item
Does my Alienware M18X R1 need a specific OS to recognise the full 16 GB kit?
The 16 GB kit works with a 64-bit operating system; a 32-bit OS cannot address more than 4 GB.
Can I keep the original DDR3L 1600 CL11 modules while adding this 2 x 8 GB kit?
The notebook has four SODIMM sockets and supports up to 32 GB, so the existing sticks can remain if total capacity stays within that limit.
How do I confirm the new memory is running at DDR3L 1600 CL11 after installation?
Check the memory tab in CPU-Z or the BIOS; it should report 1600 MHz, 11-11-11 timings and 1.35 V for each module.
