Quoting Thrax
We outfitted our entire lab at school at the beginning of the year with Crucial DDR sticks. Their newest PC2700 modules.
This was against my best judgement, as like QP, I had several sticks of their 2100 die on me at home. However, we bought 40 sticks of 256 and we got a GREAT deal on them. We had 20 computers, and each stick had a half gig of memory.
By the time we got to the end of the year, only 11 computers had their crucial memory. That's right 18 sticks died on us.
I have nothing but loathing for Crucial for wasting my personal money for their sticks at home, and wasting my IT budget at school.
This is why you should always use antistatic wristwraps. I did and have had no problems so far. I know that not everyone use them and still have no problems but why take the chance.
