An 8GB DDR5-5600 SO-DIMM, the simplest way to add a second stick to a DDR5 laptop that shipped with a single 8GB module
Quick Specs

- Type: DDR5 262-pin SO-DIMM laptop memory
- Speed: 5600MHz
- Operating temperature: 0°C to 85°C

A small, affordable DDR5 upgrade
The Hiker 8GB is for DDR5 laptops that came with one 8GB stick and a free slot: add this and you have 16GB, and a matched pair also lets the laptop run in dual-channel mode. It also works as a replacement for a failed module. The 5600MHz rating suits newer DDR5 laptops; in a laptop rated for 4800MHz it runs at 4800MHz, so the cheaper 4800MHz Hiker does the same job there. If you are starting from scratch or run heavy workloads, a 16GB module is the better buy.
Check your laptop first
This is a 262-pin DDR5 SO-DIMM, so it only fits laptops with a DDR5 SO-DIMM slot. It will not go into a desktop motherboard, and it cannot replace DDR4, DDR3 or DDR3L memory, because each generation is keyed differently. Many thin-and-light laptops have their memory soldered to the board with no free slot, so check your model's manual or open the base panel before ordering. Also check the laptop's maximum supported memory speed: if it is lower than 5600MHz, the module simply runs at the slower speed, and a mixed pair runs at the slower module's settings.
