Update my RAM in my MacBook5, 1 (end of 2008)

Hello!

I have a macbook alu - Late 2008 - model # "MacBook5, 1. I have 2x1GB of RAM.

I would like to change / update my RAM capacity - what is the maximum that can take in charge the Macbook? 2x2gb? 2x4gb? Where to buy RAM, do you have any advice? Thank you!

You might need this update of the firmware. Read it here

Your model uses DDR3 ram and your maximum on this model is 8 GB. These two configurations of RAM should work. Tons of information on RAM and your model here.

    Hey guys,.

    I had Compaq 6710 b and I'll update my Ram and HARD drive on it with these (link here)

    On the system view, it says memory: 1.99 Gb and the Crucial site gives these details:

    Maximum memory: 4 GB
    Slots: 2

    But I looked under the hood of the ram and only thing I saw was a simple location with stick of 1 GB (below Sorry for bad quality and light photos)

  • Windows Update will not install the hotfix on Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 KB3122648

    Hello

    I tried several times to install "MS16-019: Description of the update of security for .NET Framework 3.5.1 in Windows 7 Service Pack 1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1" on a Windows Server 2008 R2, running Service Pack 1

    Windows Update has always ends with 'Failure' / has encountered an unknown error. Code 80073712

    The convenience store has not solved it either.

    The server is not really exposed to 'outside' as such, runs in a local network, regular, small; but sometimes, a web browser may be in use.

    Is there anything that can / should be done here to remedy the failure of the installation? Or free time and even not to worry about this?

    It would be great to have a few strong indications here. Thank you!

  • End of 2008 Mac SSD & RAM Upgrade

    Hi all

    I have a Macbook 13-inch, aluminum, late 2008. This is the 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, with 2x2gb DDR3 1067 MHz Kington.

    I'm currently under OSX 10.9.5. My Version of boot ROM: MB51.007D.B03.

    I would like to change the current drive with a 512 GB SSD Crucial. Someone of you have encountered problems with SSD Crucial on this particular Mac?

    When I initially swapped to the Kington 2 GB RAM, I read that 4 GB is the max for this model at this time. Recently, I did some more research and found 8 GB might be supported if you a particular firmware. http://blog.MacSales.com/9102-secret-firmware-lets-late-08-MacBooks-use-8gb

    Im looking at buying Crucial 8 GB Kit (2 x 4 GB) DDR3 - 1066 SODIMM memory for Mac. http://www.crucial.com/USA/en/ct2k4g3s1067m

    I've read some people have had problems with 2 x 4 GB and used a config 1x2GB and 1x4Go. However, the post is about 3-4 years.

    Once I update to SSDS and the Rams I intend to update the current firmware. Should I face any problem as soon as I update to El legend with the Rams and the SSD upgrade?

    I appreciate all the comments.

    Mike

    There is no problem to occur as far as I understand your plan except that it is much more fast MacBook Pro you expect!

    You should get 2.5 external HDD Enclosure also inches so that you can make drive bootable with Carbon Copy clone or SuperDuper clone!

  • Use of very high ram of the Mac mini end of 2012 after startup

    Hello my name is Ogi.Recently I have problem with my mac mini 2012.I end had a problem starting, so I used the startup, says apple. This problem has been resolved. But then another problem showed. Now, after I turn my mac mini on when I'll be on the desk I noticed that my mac is really slow. Then I open the activity monitor and watched. Wow 3.50 GB of ram used off 4. and I have not any startup programs. Now, so my mac is pretty useless. And btw, before when I started my mac I got 2.50 GB used and free 2.50, it is normal. Help, please!

    Thanks in advance

  • Acer Aspire R7 update - 571 RAM memory

    I have an Acer Aspire R7-571. On the card it says that the RAM can be extended up to 12 GB of RAM. I can still put 16 Meg RAM? Would it be more useful or would that be a problem? Right now I have 2 x 4 GB. Thank you

    First of all, you shouldn't need more than 8 GB total unless you do something REMARKABLY memory-intensive. My high-end desktop computer has 8 GB and it would be cheap and easy for me to change that to 16 GB, but it is simply not worth it. 8GB is fine for 98% of the population, if your uses include office, even high-end navigation on Internet or games.

    If YOU really need more than 8 GB, I think that you will be limited to 12 GB. On the R7, 4 GB tends to be soldered on the motherboard. You can replace your other 4 GB SODIMM with a 8GB SODIMM for 12GB total.

    You can always get a torx screwdriver and open it to look.

    But you should be fine with 8.

    If you are looking for a performance boost, according to this Factsheet you linked, the R7-571 in your country does understand not all SSD. You should have a port empty MSATA that you can use with an MSATA SSD. Pass your windows the 1 TB HDD for an MSATA SSD will make much more sensitive.

Anyone know what is happening?
