M6-n010dx RAM and HDD upgrade

Hello,
i was thinking of upgrading the RAM and HDD of my laptop but was not sure if the products i selected are compatible.
My concerns arise from the fact that the n010dx has AMD processors.
If someone would confirm that the chosen parts are compatible, it would be great.

Hello and welcome to Apple Discussions. No questions are too basic, as we all have to start somewhere.
Emac models are best differentiated by the CPU speed.
You can go to the Menu item  About this Mac will tell you the CPU speed.
From what you have said it sounds like a later model eMac.
is there some kind of issue that arises when one installs more than 1gb?
No, it is just that when these eMacs came out the highest RAM module made at the 333 Mhz speed was 512Mb. Later the manufacturers made 1Ghz modules, thus doubling the capacity from the original specifications. Keep in mind there are two slots for these modules. 1Ghz X 2 = 2 Ghz maximum.
Also, I have noticed that my apple is quite noisy; whilst it doesn't sound like a worringly noisy computer, how much noise of this is due to the harddrive?
None of it is due to the hard drive. Hard drive noise is intermittent and barely noticeable. The noise is the roaring of the fan. eMacs are notable for their robust and noisy fan.
Replacing the hard disk in an eMac requires quite some dissassembly.
Someone else may post disassembly links as I my old ones don't work anymore, and you may also get more detail about your RAM questions.

Macbook 7.1 (mid-2010) RAM and hdd upgrade questions!

Hello!
In a bit of impulsiveness, I have just acquired a Apple laptop: a lightly used Macbook 7.1 (released mid-2010 and discontinued, 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo). This is my first Apple computer!
I want to upgrade just a wee bit to squeeze a bit more performance out of what is currently probably a mid to low end laptop. Two questions:
1) I know this Macbook takes 1066 MHz DDR memory. But I have two 2 GB sticks of 1333 MHz PC3-10600 DDR3 SODIMM. Can I put those in? Or do I have to get 1066 sticks?
2) I'd like to put a 7200 rpm hdd in it. Will there be any potential issues with heat? (I'm assuming a 7200rpm drive generates more heat than a 5400rpm drive.)
Thanks!!!!

Faster RAM will have a great chance to lead to problems. If it works it will not be noticeably faster; The bus speed is still 1066. Ram being cheap I would either put in more ram and not faster ram, buy from high reputation suppliers like Crucial, OWC.
The 7200 will not lead to problems, be sure that it is compatible, the fastest way to replace if you are using (snow) leopard OS: make a clone of the existing drive to the new one, boot from it when still outside, to test; replace the internal disk with the new one, et voila...

Ram and hdd upgrade questions

Hay; i'm a apple newbe so forgive me if any of the questions are basic ones.
I've been trying my hand at things like garageband using a emac that I purchased on ebay but would like to upgrade the ram and the hdd.
Any answers to any of the below would be extremely helpfull - fyi, about this mac says I have a powermac6.4.
Ram:
Google says that my model can take 2gb of ddr333 ram but only 1 gb is supported; is there some kind of issue that arises when one installs more than 1gb?
Also, should I get low or high dencity ram?
Hdd:
Installing ram seems easy enough, but instructions for installing the hdd seem to differ per site that I visit. Would someone be able to link me to some instructions for my model that are known to be correct?
Idealie i'd like to put a 250gb drive in there, but i'm wondering if this would result in 48lba issues?
Just out of interest, how much of a speed boost can I expect when going from 5400 rpm to 7200?
Also, I have noticed that my apple is quite noisy; whilst it doesn't sound like a worringly noisy computer, how much noise of this is due to the harddrive?
Thanks for any answers.

Ram and HDD Upgrade

Hi all, i am looking at upgrading my Macbook Pro 13 inch to a higher spec this month, due to using it constantly at uni on an interactive media course. I use all Adobe suite software, such as Photoshop, Illustrator etc, and i also use software such as Zbrush, Maya and Topogun for 3D character modelling. As you can imagine it crashes my mac quite a lot. I also have Bootcamp installed with Windows xp SP2 Professional version, in order for me to run 3D Studio Max. At the moment i have 2gb of RAm and a 160GB HDD.
I was looking at upgrading to 4GB of ram, and perhaps 500GB HDD, however i saw in a forum that someone had upgraded to a 1Terabyte HDD without any problems. This seems better for me as i could keep literally everything such as Photos, all my music and at least 200 GB worth of movies all in one place rather than using multiple, old, external drives.
Now what i wanted to know is would it be more beneficial to upgrade to 4GB of RAM or would you suggest more, perhaps 8 due to the programmes i run etc. And also any information on the terabyte HDD would be appreciated.
Another question is where can i source these parts cheap in the UK, as i will be buying them myself for my birthday and as a student i'm pretty skint! Thanks in advance!
Jamie.

A drive like this might be what you're after:

And the RAM:

(Your use means the most RAM you can have the better)
You could find better deals on Amazon UK possibly ...

Self RAM and HDD upgrade on mac mini

I would upgrade by myself RAM AND/OR HDD on a mac mini late 2009, will I void the warranty doing that kind of upgrade by myself?
Thank you

Hi Dahveed-
The question the original poster asked was if adding RAM would break his warranty. The answer, backed by the legal language in the Mini user guide, the Apple Hardware limited warranty booklet and the page on the Apple website is NO. Period. BUT if adding the RAM is the cause of failures or problems, then yes, the warranty will end immediately and forever. I believe I stated that quite clearly.
The statement that the apple web article is from 2004, and is therefore invalid, might work for some people on an emotional level, but not to a lawyer. Apple is wearing a big red bullseye on their back for as long as it remains up on the website.
I understand that you might be hung up on the idea that since there are no user serviceable parts in the Mini, you are breaking warranty by servicing the Mini.
This is not correct, and you will not find any language in any Apple documentation that says, "Servicing the Mini will void your warranty." If you can find that language anywhere, please correct me- I would be the first to admit I was wrong.
What Apple says is that since the Mini has no user serviceable parts, if you DAMAGE the Mini while servicing it and you are not an Apple Authorized repair center, YOU are liable for the damage, and not Apple. (Refer to Exclusions and Limitations paragraph F in the Apple Hardware Limited Warranty document in the Mac Mini box)
If the little RAM upgrade project had no bearing whatsoever on the problem your Mini suffers from, the warranty coverage applies.
Legally, warranties are always a bit of a corporate headache because a company must be very specific about what is NOT covered. This is why many electronics manufacturers, in addition to using specific language about what voids a warranty in the manual, often take the additional step of placing decals or other tamper-proof seals on sensitive internal components to assure that no servicing can be done. Nowhere inside the Mini, and nowhere in the manual and the warranty booklet does it say that servicing the Mini voids the warranty.
It is unfortunate that a couple of upgraders were allegedly turned down for service, but if they were turned down because their upgrade damaged, say, an Airport antenna or if they shorted something out by accidentally touching something, then yes, that shouldn't be covered.
On the other hand, if they can independently confirm with another repair center that the needed repairs were not in any way related to their upgrade, then they have a good claim on their hands, and a lawyer would say they had a good case against Apple.
Then again, I would be willing to bet that if those 2 posters had opened up their Mini again, taken out the upgrades, replaced them with the original apple parts, and THEN sent it in for service, they would have had no problems whatsoever.

Minimum ram and hdd space need for windows 7

What is the minimum of ram and hdd space memory to use with windows 7. Is the windows 7 faster than vista on the same machine ? thansk
Nothing is impossible

BillWindows said: (...) I bought 4g ddr2 for (...) I think most people should be able to afford an upgrade.
Sorry, but I disagree fundamentally here. While it is true that RAM prices have come down since XP was released, there are many machines out there for which you can't just buy regular RAM around the corner. Either because the systems were designed so that only a certain amount of RAM can be used (e.g., 128 MB on one of my VAIOs) or because they use a special socket or because you are not allowed to open the case or for whatever other reason you can think of.
I am not necessarily complaining. But I frequently hear that Microsoft wants to sell Windows 7 upgrades to XP owners. So if Microsoft wants to upgrade XP owners to Windows 7, they should better make sure that technical requirements are less or equal to those of XP.
And no, it's not given by nature that newer OSes always need to become fatter, slower, and more RAM hungry: have a look at Mac OS X which actually improved performance over the past releases, even on older machines.
Also, before you flame me, I'm not just caring about "museum age" computers. I bought a netbook just months ago and it came with 1 GB of RAM. Warranty is void if I open the case. So I can't "just" upgrade to more than 1 GB RAM.

Which Apple MacBook Pro has the most RAM and HDD memory?

I would like to know this because I plan on buying a MacBook Pro and I just want to make sure I'm buying the one with the most RAM and HDD memory and not some other one. Why do I need specifically this? Because I'm a gamer; I like playing games. I'm a watcher too; I like watching movies. Last but not least, I would like to sync my iPhone to a device that's from the same company. I don't know why, but I guess it's because I don't like uncoordination, or something like that. In short, I don't believe in "clashing". Even electronics.

The Hardware In Any Mac is Exactly the same as used in Any PC of like model year and included hardware. i7 being faster then an i5 CPU.
Apple uses the same exact Intel CPUs and Chipsets that all other computer use manfacturer today. There is No difference.
Ogelthorpe is comppletely correct that Windows, by nature of the OS, is better for running games and the hardware it comes on, by nature of the way they are manufactured even though it is the same hardware as in a Mac, is better for gaming because of the way they are cooled and the overall case design. More air vents and better air movement across the parts that get hot while gaming.
Mac notebooks on the other hand don't cool as well by nature of the air intake and exhaust systems. Both air intake and exhaust are at the screen hinge and the fans are designed to be quieter then on most Windows PC notebooks. Even if Windows is installed on Mac that Mac will run hotter then a PC with the same exact hardware configurations. This is a fact and experienced by many Mac users. Including myself.
Mac fans run all the time. From the second you start them up to the second they shut down completely. I personally don't know of any Windows PC notebook that do that. My Dell E6420 with the exact same CPU and more RAM, 16GBs in the Dell and 8 in my Mac, with the Dell having 2 drives, one a SSD the other a Spinner in the media bay, and the Mac having only one Seagate XT series in the main bay the Dell fans rarely come on unless I am taxing the system in some way. They are not on continuously and certainly not when I turn the system on. So Apple has designed the Mac to run the fans continuously to try and keep the system cool from the first power on.
So your statement is completely false. But it is what most people think even though it is unfounded.

This is not true. The hardware is simply better on a Mac. Even when running Windows on a Mac, you'll have a far better experience than on a PC..

How to test RAM and HDD (Hard Drive).

Introduction
HP machines have built-in Bios testers for RAM and HDD's.
To use them you need to enter Bios by pressing F10 on startup. They are placed under ' Diagnostics menu '.
Why I wrote this guide and complicate whole situation?
There are three reasons:
This testers are not so great and sometimes they do not detect problems which you may have with your hardware. It's recommended to use more advanced tester for RAM and manufacter diagnostic programs to test HDD's.
Not always you will be able to enter Bios. Sometimes corrupted hardware is blocking possibility to run it.
Advanced diagnostic softwares for hard drives allow to fix some problems.

Ad. A
There are few possibilities to run this program. In this guide I will present how to run it from:
CD
       and
USB Flash Drive.
First we need to burn Memtest86+ on a CD or prepare properly USB Flash drive with a special tool.
Here you will find Memtest86+ home page from which you will be able to download correct version of this software.
Solution 1. CD:
        Download ' Pre-Compiled Bootable ISO (.zip) ' and extract it with 7-Zip(free) or WinRar.
        Download CDBurnerXP from here. Install this program and run it.
        Choose ' Browse ISO image '.
        and point Memtest86+ iso file.
        Click ' Burn disc '.
        Wait until burning process will finish.
        Choose ' OK '.
        Exit from program.
Solution 2. USB Flash Drive:
         Download ' Auto-installer for USB Key (Win 9x/2k/xp/7) ' and extract it with 7-Zip(free) or WinRar.
         Connect USB Flash Drive to one of USB ports. Run ' Memtest86+ 4.10 USB Installer '.
         Click ' I Agree '.
         Select USB Flash Drive and check box to format it.
     Caution!
          Format process will erase all information from USB Flash Drive. If you have there something important then please backup this data first.
           Choose ' Create '.
           Wait until process will finish and click ' Next '.
           Exit from program by choosing ' Finish '.
How to run Memtest86+.
Leave USB Flash drive in USB port or CD in CD/DVD drive. Restart your system and on startup press F9 key repetitively:
After this step you will be able to select from which device you want to boot. Choose from the list ' USB Hard Drive ' if you have prepared USB Flash Drive (like on below photo) or ' Optical Disk Drive ' if you have prepared CD:

Mac Mini Upgrade Ram and HDD Drive

Hey there guys, I am going to buy a new mac mini 2.0 Ghz next month. My question is this that on the apple support site it says that if I upgrade the RAM myself or hard disk and I damage any component of the hardware my warranty is void.
My question is this that, If I buy a 320GB Western Digital Sata drive put it in and a 4GB(2Gb x 2) 1066mhz DDR 3 Ram Modules, Will that void my apple warranty, I am planning to get an Apple Care plan to make it a total of 3 years warranty. So where Do I stand? meaning that I don't mind if the new hard disk and ram that I buy myself is not covered in the warranty as I will have individual warranties from the respective companies.
But still does it means that, everything is covered Minus the hard disk and ram that i Individually buy.. everything else would still be covered for the 1 year initial warranty and then 2 year for apple care protection plan. does it mean that?
Is there anyway I don't spoil my warranty? I really cant afford to buy the memory and hard disk from apple, since its too expensive. I am looking forward to get the Mac Mini base line unit, 2.0 Ghz with 1 gb of ram 120gb hdd.

As far as I can see anywhere in Apple documentation there are no officially user-serviceable part in the mini (anyone have a link to the contrary?).
But, in the U.S. at least, warranty law seems to be in consumers' favor these days, and unless you specifically break something with your unauthorized upgrade, Apple still has to honor the warranty.
The mini manual in fact says:
"If you open your Mac mini or install items, you risk damaging your equipment,
and *such damage* isn’t covered by the limited warranty on your Mac mini."
Your damage isn't covered, not the warranty is voided.
But, NEVER EVER send any product in with a user upgrade even if upgrades are officially allowed -- because it's really common to just be sent back a swap instead of your machine. With the mini, you'll want to observe that doubly so, just to eliminate the possibility of them complaining about your upgrade. Keep the original parts, and put them back in if you ever need service.
For this Apple Store situation, the only thing he could legitimately charge you for is a "labor charge" for the act of having to remove your RAM *for testing the other problem*. That should be like $30 not $300, and you should get your custom RAM back in a little baggy. Tricking you into buying Apple RAM to "solve" your other warranty problem, or as a condition of getting warranty service, is probably fraud.
Nonetheless -- definitely not a good idea to bring in the mini with the custom RAM in the first place...
Note that there are some gray areas as to damage -- for example if you put in a processor upgrade (in the older minis with processor sockets) and that ran much hotter, Apple could legitimately claim the heat damaged some other part that failed.

Upgrading the ram and hdd myself

Well i have read the following page on the apple site
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1270
And i have a fair idea on how to upgrade the ram and the harddrive.
My question is will doing so void my warranty? and applecare?

Doing the replacements yourself will not void the warranty provided you don't damage anything in the process - just make sure you have the right tools and follow the instructions (in the little handbook that came with your Mac) carefully.

Satellite S55t-B5152 Ram and HD upgrade, please

I just bought a brand new Satellite S55t-B5152 from Microsoft Store. It came with 4GB ram and 512 HD. I have some extra rams and SSD. So I want to upgrade them by myself. unfortunately when receive the laptop, I regconize that the bottom cover is not easly remove, and I research the menual online, it state they are "not user upgradeable, factory installed only". But I did some research on the forum. It seems if you could get a upgarde guide, you may still do it by yourself. So I would ask these Moderators do me a favor, please PM the upgrade guide, so I can do the upgrade by myself. Thank you!

I could not find any guides after searching for many days. So I decided to go ahead and opened up the case. It was quite simple. First I removed the two crews circled in the image below, pulled out the battery, press the power button to make discharge any remaining power.Then I removed the other screws (12 total). Then pried out the cover piece starting from the corner where the power cord plugged in, and go around as showned by the arrows. The pieces were held together by small clips, if you are carefull, I don't think you will break any of them. I just add another piece of RAM, and it popped right in. Not sure how hard it will be to replace the HDD. I though Toshiba has their own RAM, but the one in there is a Kingstons (the blue piece in the picture below). Maybe they sell refurb as new? If you open your case and see a toshiba RAM, please let me know. I installed a 8M in there with the original 4M. OS reports 12M, but when I ran a few RAM tests using the app came with W8.1, the process hanged every time. Maybe some compatible problems. Hopefully, taking out the 4M will solve it. Hope this help.

DV7-6150ev ram and HDD replace

I have a DV7-6150ev for business purposes. I face some ram issues and I am would like to replace it. First of all I can’t find any technical manual to show how to replace the ram and also I would like also to replace the HDD with a Western Digital Black² 1.12TB Hybrid WD1001X06XDTL.
I was thinking to add 16GB ram. Will the laptop recognize it? Will it recognize the HDD?
Thank you in advanced for your answers.

Strange New Error Since RAM and HD Upgrade

Recently I added more RAM to my machine, I went from 8gb to 32, this update forced me to upgrade to Windows 7 Pro because Win 7 home edition is limited to 16GB, I also added a second hard drive and the files I am working with are on this new hard drive.
When I attempt to publish an Apple .IPA file via Adobe AIR I get this wall of errors. It does not happen every time but when it does it takes many restarts to get it to publish. Any ideas?

Ah thanks for clarifying 64bit to 64bit upgrade.
When you say blue screen (BSOD) the first thing that always comes to mind is memory issues. It doesn't even matter if you buy the same brand/model/size sticks, they can conflict with each other and blue screen you. The only way to avoid this is typically buy only matched sets (the manufacturer guarantees the RAM was tested together and is packaged together). That doesn't mean buying 2 separate paired sets is the same, they can conflict with each other.
One easy way that just takes patience is to use the good old Prime95 test. I recommend you download it and let it run for at least an hour on the torture test. It will attempt to make your RAM create a mistake, blue screen you, etc. If it does, you may have a RAM issue. I say "may" because it will test your processor, FSB and RAM all together. If it does make a blue screen, try removing all but one module of RAM and test again. If that passes, pair it up and try again. Eventually you will find the RAM combo that is failing if that's the issue.
You can get Prime95 here:
http://www.mersenne.org/freesoft/ (direct link)
Don't sign up for GIMPS (unless you want to), just use the software for the testing purpose.
Lastly many modern motherboards support memtest86 directly in the BIOS menu (press delete, F1 or whatever your motherboard mentioned at PC startup). See if it's in the advanced or troubleshooting menus. That is the industry standard way to test RAM but it's not as easy as Prime95. If you don't have memtest86 in the menu you can download it here:
http://download.cnet.com/Memtest86/3000-2086_4-10524193.html
Note memtest86 is a CD image. You burn that onto a CD and then boot off the CD. It does not run in Windows.
If your memory checks out, that only leaves the HD as a potential issue. If your system reliably blue screens often, taking it out to see if it's causing it should be pretty easy.

Lag Issues since RAM and HD Upgrade

Hi all,
About a month ago I finally ran out of space on my 2007 MBP (2.2ghz). After much research, shopping, etc. I upgraded to 2x2GB Corsair RAM and the Western Digital 500gb Scorpio Blue hard drive.
RAM installation went smooth, no apparent issues.
Then the HD replacement followed a day or two later (just so I was sure the RAM was OK). Opening up the case was daunting, but seemed fine. Clean install of Tiger from the disks, and everything boots up great!
But....now I have lag. No clicking or audible hard drive parking as some have experienced, just a little delay that is inconsistent and across functions (i.e. typing, load new tab in Safari, CMD-TAB to switch applications). Sometimes beach ball, sometimes not.
I have checked all things posted in various forums - repaired permissions, smc and pram resets, and have used Disk Utility, Onyx and TechTool Deluxe (I'm still under Apple Care). The result is less lag, but lag nonetheless.
After booting to my old drive (external and left untouched since the upgrade), guess what? NO LAG!
Can anyone comment / help on the possible issues here? As I see it, here's the possible conclusions I've narrowed it down to:
1. This particular WD is (a bit) faulty. Exchange it assuming WD Scorpio Blues are compatible?
OR, can anyone suggest an HD that is more likely to work without issue?
2. Apple firmware is simply not 100% compatible with 3rd party drives - just need to hope they address this?
3. Tiger is the problem? Move to Snow Leopard and issues will disappear?
4. Insert your theory here.
Thanks!
Kevin

Just thought I would chime in here,
I am in exactly the same situation as yourself after installing a WD 500GB HD (Model: WD5000BEVT). I have also tried the "hdapm" application but after a lot of effort just couldn't get it to work. I am currently waiting for a response from WD as this seems like a common issue and should hear back from them by the end of today. Just to make sure we have the same thing here are the symptoms from my computer:
- Very brief lag (1 - 2secs) on most things. For example, right click on an item to bring up a menu will result in spinning wheel for a few moments and then the menu.
- At time of lag/freeze a noticeable sound of the HD spinning up before the action will be performed
- Computer boot up and shutdown time seems seem longer than with pervious "official" HD
- I also noticed when I was transferring all my music (43GB) onto the computer the computers responsiveness while using applications was much faster.
Whilst here, does anyone know which HD is the official 500GB 2.5inch SATA drive that apple uses and if apple themselves modify the firmware to make it work better with there notebooks. I would just be interested to know and if it comes to it I will put this current HD into something else and get a more compatible HD.
When I hear back from WD I will post what they said.
Regards.

Difficulty of RAM and HD upgrade installation.

I plan to buy one of the new Minis for my wife, and install larger RAM (probably OWC) and HD (probably WD). How difficult is the installation? I presume it is not as trivial as on my MacPro.
(I would be happy to pay for Apple upgrades, if they were just outrageously high, and not absurdly stratospheric! )

This is what I bought http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820148191 but it's sold out now. I didn't realize when I posted earlier. I used the same in my MPB 2.4 (Late 2008).
I received my mini about an hour ago. I didn't feel like waiting for the RAM from Newegg to come so put the RAM in my MBP into the mini. Works great. I put the OEM RAM back in the MBP. When the Newegg RAM comes on Fri. I'll put that in the MBP.
At any rate, installing the RAM into the mini was pretty easier. It's a little nervy at first but the case peels away fairly easily if you apply a gentle hand. Once the lid is off it's easy. Pop off the antennas, remove 4 screws, and pop off a cable connector. The upper guts of the mini can then easily be flips. Pop in the RAM and reverse. The whole procedure took me about 15-20min, probably b/c it was my first time and I was extra cautious.
