You can use cruicial memory, and if you are worried about warranty, and u have a problem, just take the extra modules out when u send it off

Yep. Just means you can't sell the old ones on eBay because you need to put them back in if it gets sent off. It's basically a scam to get you to be ripped off buying Sony RAM, there's nothing unsafe about Crucial or other major brands whatsoever.
