Questions about this item

Which Lenovo ThinkPad models must I already own for this 204-pin DDR3 SODIMM to fit?

This module is validated for ThinkPad L530, T430, T430i, T430s, T430si, T431s and T530 systems that accept 204-pin DDR3 SODIMMs.

Will the 1.5 V CL11 8 GB stick run stably alongside any existing DDR3 1600 modules I keep in the other slot?

Yes, it follows JEDEC DDR3 1600 PC3-12800 CL11 1.5 V specs, so it will match speed, voltage and timing of identical-rated modules already installed.

How can I confirm the module is recognised at its rated 1600 MHz CL11 after installation?

Open Task Manager or a system-information tool and verify the memory shows 8 GB, DDR3, 1600 MHz and CL11 timing.
