What kind of RAM for a MacBook?

I bought the Intel Core Duo 2.0GHz MacBook and I'm wondering what kind of RAM this computer uses? It's the model preceding the current MacBook.

Both MacBook models use the same, if you want to make sure you are getting compatible RAM, buy from a company that guarantees mac compatibility like

Both of them have memory advisors for Apple computers on their site.

  • What kind of memory for my Macbook Pro Laptop

    Hello:
    I am thinking of getting more memory for my laptop.
    I am unsure on what brand to buy, so I appreciate any input you might have. I have 2 memory slots that have 2gb each. How much can I put in each slot? 4gb, 8gb?
    What kind of prices for the memory?
    Here are the specs on my laptop.
    MacBook Pro
    13-inch, Early 2011
    Processor  2.3 GHz Intel Core i5
    Memory  4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    Graphics  Intel HD Graphics 3000 384 MB
    Thank you!

    You can put an 8GB module in each slot, giving you a total of 16GB. But that's the maximum.
    Good sources of RAM for your model (which use 204-pin PC-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMMs) are Crucial, OWC and Corsair. Other people may recommend other brands, but I would get one of the three (and I only include Corsair because that's what I'm using).
    Good luck,
    Clinton

  • Whats the maximum RAM for my MacBook Pro?

    Thanks to any and all.

    Sorry, I thought i included that info.
    From what i found online, it looks as if 4GB is the max. However i can't figure out if thats per slot, or if I can put 2GB in each available slot.
    I currently have 1GB SDRAM per slot.

    +Memory: 4 GB+
    I am looking to buy more ram for my macbook, but I don't know what to look for. Do I have to buy 2x 4GB and get rid of my old ram or I can buy 2 x 2GB and use them all together?
    Also, same with HD. I need more HD as well. Can I install another harddrive as well?

    There are only 2 slots for RAM. So, you'd need to replace one of the 2 GB sticks with a 4 GB stick for a total of 6 GB, or replace both for a total of 8 GB.
    Yes, you can replace the HDD with a larger one as well. There are instructions in the manual.

  • What kind of Ram do I need for my Mac?

    Hello
    I want to upgrade the speed of my mac by adding a 2GB stick of ram. But what kind of ram do i need? Would this work for my Mac (Mid 2011 21.5 inch) http://www.amazon.co.uk/Crucial-PC3-10600-Desktop-Upgrade-240-pin/dp/B001NA25VS/ ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1390290563&sr=8-1&keywords=2gb+ram?

    Macs are very, VERY picky about the RAM specs they need.
    That RAM is the wrong pin count and probably for PCs and not a Mac
    Here is the proper RAM spec for your year and model.
    32 GB (Actual) 16 GB (Apple)
    Memory Slots
    4 - 204-pin PC3-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM
    Correct and reliable Mac RAM can be purchased from online Mac RAM sources Crucial memory or OWC (macsales.com).

  • R830 - What kind of RAM do I need

    Hi All,
    Toshiba telephone support was unable to help me so I turn to you.
    I have a Portege R830 (Model: PT320C-01J018) which has 4GB of RAM.
    I assume this is commonly referred to as Portege R830-01J model? (I hope I'm right otherwise my model number simply does not exist)
    I am running 64bit Win7 and would like to add another 4GB, as I wish to run VMWare. However I simply cannot figure out what kind of RAM I need to buy. The technical specs.
    Crucial RAM website says I need DDR3 1600 PC3-12800
    Kingston RAM website says I need DDR3 1333  PC3-10600
    An ad on Ebay says I need DDR3 1333  PC3-10600 (same as what Kingston recommends)
    I opened up the slot for the RAM but could see no markings that were helpful.
    If anyone out there can shed some light on this I'd really appreciate it! Thanks.

    Portege R830 PT320C-01J018
    We support US computers at this site. Everything for that Canadian model is here.
    According to the spec above, Toshiba offers this RAM.
       PA3918U-1M2G DDR3-1333 2GB Memory Module
       PA3918U-1M4G DDR3-1333 4GB Memory Module

  • What kind of RAM do you use with your K7D Master-L? (esp. unbuff)

    I was windering what kind of RAM people sue with their K7D Master-L mobos.  I recently got one with a 512 stick of Mushkiin Level 2 CAS222 RAM however I'm having boot problem. I'm going to test registered RAM soon to see if that is the problem.
    Have people had success with unbuffered RAM? I really want to use Mushkin or Corsair XMS RAM for their high performance and overclockability, but if I can't oh well
    -Matt

    Use registered. I have used kingston and infineon working fine ( besides some funny things at some point)
    Senior people will tell you there isn't any choice...

  • Im thinking about buying OWC ram for my macbook pro.

    Im thinking about buying OWC ram for my macbook pro but dont know if it will have negative affects on my computer, should i do it?

    Only if you install it wrong or use the wrong RAM.

    Use the free Crucil.com checker to doublecheck if you need too.
    You don't want Apple to do it, they quoted me $435 to upgrade $70 worth of RAM.
    Do it yourself or have a local geek friend (PC or Mac) do it, it's not hard, unles you got bad eyesight and can't see the tiny screws. Use a catch mat, follow proper anti-static and handling. (touch only plastic)
    Break something inside, your on your own though. No warranty coverqge or AppleCare for self inflicted damage.
