IBM 4100 – 1024 MB (2 x 512 MB) SD RAM MEMORY

Detailed Description:

The IBM 4100 memory kit comprises two 512MB modules, summing up to a total of 1024MB or 1GB of SDRAM (Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory). Designed for compatibility with older IBM systems, this memory upgrade is tailored for machines that utilize the SDRAM technology rather than the more modern DDR variants. SDRAM technology, prevalent in the late 90s and early 2000s, synchronized the memory’s operation with the computer’s CPU bus speed, allowing for a significant performance boost over its asynchronous predecessors. By installing the IBM 4100 memory kit, users can rejuvenate their legacy IBM systems, enhancing their capability to run more applications simultaneously and improving overall responsiveness. This upgrade is particularly beneficial for users looking to extend the operational lifespan of their equipment without the need for a full replacement, providing a cost-effective solution for increasing performance. Additionally, the use of two separate modules offers enhanced performance through the ability to use dual-channel memory configuration if supported by the system, effectively doubling the data transfer rate between the memory and the motherboard.
