Sodimm Laptop Memory Kingston Technology 4GB 1600MHz DDR3L PC3-12800 1.35V Non-ECC CL11 SODIMM Intel Laptop Memory KVR16LS11/4I installed this module into my HP ProBook 430 G1. It works perfectly and passed testing without any issues.
Due to the slim design of the laptop, I had to ensure that the module wouldn't short-circuit against the laptop's metal-coated access panel. One of the capacitors along the top edge of this SODIMM stands taller than its neighboring parts, so I added insulation to the laptop cover to prevent a short. The laptop maker is mainly at fault here, but at the same time it's a little odd because the RAM that came with the laptop is also made by Kingston, and that module uses smaller capacitors compared to the ones on the module I purchased from Amazon.
One final note, as of writing this review, Amazon's generic photo shows a 2R module with 8 chips per side. In reality, module is 1R and has 4 chips per side.
