If you have no luck finding compatible RAM try searching” hs-453dx ram” it has the same compatibility. Most likely PHS-memory will come up:

It has been quite a while before I was able to successfully upgrade the RAM of my QNAP TS-453D. When using Corsair earlier in my NAS everything stopped, so no rattle of the drives amd only 2 beeps. So I returned the memory and ordered the same type Corsair memory (still CT2K16G4SFD824A) from another company but with no luck either. Returned those too, but what I time it takes to get a refund ☹

Actually I was not aware of your website until I got into memory problems but visited since my firts mail to check for updates. That is how I came on the Kingston modules (KCP426SD8/16).

Today I received 2 pcs. Of Kingtston 16GB, 2666MHz modules, installed them and they work just fine. I really appreciate the job you are doing and enjoy your reviews on Youtube.

So thank you very very much,

Kind regards, and stay healthy,

 

How to do it:

 

Slide the lock down to unlock the front cover.

Remove the drive tray.

Remove a drive tray by simultaneously pressing the latch and pulling the tray.

Important
Remember the number of each drive. The drive trays will need to be returned to their original
bays.

b. Pull the tray handle outward.
c. Pull the tray out.

 

Place the NAS on its right side.

Optional: Remove an existing module.

Push the retention clips outward simultaneously to release the module.

Verify that the module has tilted upward and is completely released from the slot.

Attempting to remove a module that is not completely released may damage the module and
the motherboard.

c. Hold the module by the edges.
d. Carefully slide the module out of the slot.

Install a new module.
a. Align the notch with the ridge in the slot.
b. Insert the module into the slot.
c. Verify that the metal connectors are completely inserted into the slot.
d. Carefully press down on the module until the retention clips lock the module into place.

  2. Intel website says the CPU j4125 max memory support is 8GB not 32GB that you mentioned?

  3. I have installed ADATA 4gb DDR4-2666 AD4S2666J4G19-S (https://www.adata.com/us/orderinfo/484) which I understand is the same specs found QNAP store website https://shop.qnap.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=35_553&product_id=391. Though seems working fine as of the moment, will the new ram DDR4-2666 cause issue given that what is pre-installed is 4gb DDR-2400 (I believe is also ADATA as per control panel in qts).?

    Thanks

  4. I bought CT2K8G4SFS824A, which is the 2 pack of the 8GB and it does not work. I have to keep the other 4GB Adata module in the slot with the 8GB module to make 12 GB but 2 x 8GB locks the system.

    1. Have the same experience. Neither both nor one module works. And yes, with the data stick the system boots up, but the system ist not stable in the long run.
