DS920+ Timetec 16GB did not work, Crucial does work - Enquiries - 05-16-2023
Quick note/input after trying a couple of recommended options for a DS920+ running the latest version of DSM as of 5/16/2023.
NO it did not work in DS920+
Timetec 16GB DDR4 2666MHz (DDR4-2666) PC4-21300 (PC4-2666V) Non-ECC Unbuffered 1.2V CL19 2Rx8 Dual Rank 260 Pin SODIMM Laptop Notebook PC Computer Memory RAM Module Upgrade (16GB)
YES it works in DS920+
Crucial RAM 16GB DDR4 3200MHz CL22 (or 2933MHz or 2666MHz) Laptop Memory CT16G4SFD832A
Thank you for your posting and write-u. It was very helpful expanding my memory needs.
I would also recommend to those people who use Plex (native or containerized) and high traffic docker containers on their standard HDDs to consider using a couple of M.2 NVMe SSDs or SATA SSDs now that DSM supports pining all Btrfs metadata to an SSD cache. This resulted in a massive increase in response times loading content over just having a large RAM cache to use with the HDDs.
