    Just read this on another news site. Any idea if this specific model would work in the 8170/8150 ?
    Any idea if they are better than the patriot 8gb sodimm's from Mythological-something ?

    I have received my 4x Corsair 8GB SO-DDR3. Already put in the two at the bottom of the laptop.

    Sager NP8170 with 24GB :)

    Now I need to find out to reach the two SO-DIMM sockets under the keyboard. :confused: Unfortunately the procedure to reach those sockets is not in the Sager User Manual.

    Thanks for the tip Jason.

    Here is a screenshot of my Sager NP8170 (Cledo P170HM) with 4x Corsair CMSO8GX3M1A1333C9.

    That's enough space now to run about 8-10 good sized Virtual Machines.
