 This doesn't answer your question directly, however, while I haven't used their memory, I have had to RMA several USB drives to them.  Funny thing is I hardly used them, but when I needed them, they failed.  I finally gave up and threw them away.  Generally, I have not had any issues with most name brand memory modules, but I can't speak directly to SuperTalent.

If the reason you're looking at Super Talent ram is because it's cheap then I'd suggest going with something like what I got.

It's Mushkin "value-type" with no heat spreaders, but seems decent to me. Specs = 800mhz, C5, 1.8v

Just a hair over $40 for 2x 1gb @ newegg.     LINK

Well Ive read some good reviews on the memory more or less just seeing if anyone here was running it.More than one review indicated good OC ability so  a local retailer here I do business with sells it the 6400/800 is $29.00 per 1gb stick so I got 2 ! Going to test it out soon hopefully and the price was right! 2GB sticks are $52.00. PC1066 at $69.00 per 1 GB. Plan on getting 4gb of the 800 I,ll let you know how it works out.This local retailer is pretty big around here as an enthusiast store for high end parts! Hopefully I,ll have a rig up and running soon!Yes

 The valueram from corsair, mushkin and crucial is generally as good. To be honest lately I've been having good luck with A Data ram from newegg been using it for both laptops/desktops. its very stable and generally doesn't need extra voltage to run @ its specified speed/timings. Haven't done much overclocking with it though.

been having good luck with A Data

I've noticed on more than 1 occasion in pics I've seen that Intel's own ppl use that brand in some of their demo machines.
