    I'm looking at getting some 4GB Samsung M471B5273BH1-CH9 modules for a friend's laptop here. I found the Intel table to make sure they will work, but I can't decipher it at all. The one I'm looking at is second from the bottom, it's r/c rating is "F".

    Does anyone know what to make of this? He has a w860cu and wants to put two of them in.

    At the top, it says if it is listed in the table, it will work.

    Yes.

    Because it's not my machine, I'm just a little more nervous. I'll order them today.
