Do you know what RAM is? And do you know how much you have? I’m not computer savvy, and I’m not very familiar with techno anagrams. RAM, I know, has to do with my computer’s memory, but it required a quick Google search for me to discover that it stands for “Random access memory,” or basically the amount of data my computer can hold. Knowing how much you have is obviously important. Otherwise, how will you know how much information you can store?
You might need to upgrade your RAM, but how do you do that? Simple: Go to Crucial.com and do a quick computer scan. The Crucial System Scanner automatically analyzes your computer memory information and suggests an upgrade that’s guaranteed compatible. But wait, is this some sort of spyware? No. The scanner simply looks in your BIOS for information and then searches the Crucial.com Web site for compatible matches. If you are concerned about downloading this file, you can scan it with your antivirus software before you run it. Also, Crucial cannot access any of your personal data through the scanner tool, so using it will not compromise any personal information stored on your system. The scanner does not install anything on your system when it is opened.
Crucial.com has been serving its customers for nearly 15 years. And they use their expertise to make it easy for their customers to find the right upgrade. Their award-winning online applications—the Crucial Memory Advisor™ tool and the Crucial System Scanner—take the guesswork out of giving new life to your computer with a memory upgrade. They offer a 45-day money-back guarantee that their memory will be compatible with your system, when you purchase on crucial.com using one of their compatibility tools.
The Crucial.com website carries over 250,000 upgrades for more than 50,000 desktops, notebooks, servers, printers, routers, and other electronic devices. They manufacture, sell, and support a wide range of award-winning upgrades, including memory (RAM), solid-state drives (SSD), and USB flash drives.
The Crucial brand represents high-quality memory that has been qualified and approved by all major original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), and unlike many of their competitors, they test 100 percent of the modules that head out their doors. They back their products with industry-leading warranties, and they strive to expand their offerings to meet the ever-changing needs of their customers—customers just like me and you.
