Packaging

Nearly all memory products from Crucial end up on my doorstep in similar packaging: a plastic clamshell and generic paper inserts. Be that as it may, it kind of hints that the packaging is minor and the memory is the focus.


Flipping the box open, you can access the memory itself inside of two trays, each holding two DIMMS, nestled inside the clamshell. The Crucial Ballistix Elite sticks are hefty and their larger size means the tray each sits in is much smaller than what some other Crucial products ship with in order to make way for the large heatspreaders.
