Warranty should be claimed if, after following all installation and verification steps, the RAM module exhibits a manufacturing defect, such as not being recognized by the system, causing constant instability (blue screens, crashes) that cannot be resolved with basic troubleshooting, or showing intermittent failures that appeared shortly after installation and are not related to misuse or proven incompatibility with the laptop's hardware.
