Advantages: FAST, excellent site and support, prices

Disadvantages: buying process may be a bit long

I was a bit cautious about buying RAM online at first seeing as I didnt know how to fit it or what all the different choices were all for, but sure enough Crucial got me through it.

Their UK website has avery useful feature which allows you to choose from a range of RAM modules that are specifically compatible with your system - who wants to go blindly into it without knowing if anything will work?
After a flip through the manuals that came with the cmputer I knew enough to complete the memory wizard before choosing the RAM. You can enter in what you know about your compute's insides (model or make of the main components) which will allow the vast database at Crucial to give you the best choices - Easy!

Once through, you will be presented with the shortlist. There are still stumbling blocks here as I found out though, but help is on hand with Crucial's very comprehensive and useful help section which will explain all the jargon (ECC, parity, CAS latency....!) that you may encounter.

Once through to the order section, you'll find that all web orders have 10% off their normal value! Entering your details is also very self explanatory and, of course, as safe as houses.
Correspondance from the guys at Crucial support is freindly and helpful and their service is generally flawless, receiving the RAM in record time in a well packaged container.

Due to being overzealous with my choice, the RAM wasnt exaclty what I needed - I just made the wrong decision about a few features of the RAM which I didnt need - I decided that I would've preferred a different module. I explained thisgingerly to the supoort team who handled it well, reimbursing my account instantly with the price difference and seding me a different model out via sepcial delivery 24hr (no extra cost) after i sent the original back.

I am extremely happy with the service and help Crucial gave and would buy from them again if they sold more than jus
t RAM!
