Update of RAM memory.

What brand of RAM should I buy for a MacBook Pro Late 2011?

Mac have a reputation for being very selective with RAM.  The most reliable sources of RAM compatible Macs are OWC and Crucial.  Personally, I do not consider any other brands/suppliers.

  • 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.

  • I NEED TO KNOW IF A DELL E1705 CAN HAVE 4 GB OF RAM MEMORY

    I WANT the update LEVEL OF WINDOWS 7 BUT I NEED MORE RAM MEMORY for IT to WORK. MY OWNERS BOOK SAYS I CAN HAVE A MAXIMUM OF 4 GB OF RAM. IS THAT CORRECT? THEN I CAN INSTALL WINDOWS 7

    Yes, DELL E1705 recognizes 4 GB of RAM. You may need to update the BIOS (A09). 32 bit Windows 7 recognizes 4 GB, but usable is 3.25 GB. 64-bit Windows 7 will benefit from all 4GBs. Enjoy!

  • HP Pavilion 17 laptop-f113dx: Ram memory upgrade

    Although this would mean taking this laptop apart to do this, I want to know if the RAM memory is expandable for the HP Pavilion 17 laptop-f113dx.

    A site specific Web says it is expandable to 16 GB.  The vehicle currently has 4 GB of RAM and all I want to do is double that - go up to 8 GB.

    I wouldn't take this laptop out to see that it is not extensible.

    Can someone give me a heads-up on this update for this laptop?

    Thank you very much!!

    Hello

    Through 2, 3 page in this manual:
    http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c04427554.PDF

    There are two slots for RAM, you can put two 8 GB of RAM of the same exact brand & plug as shown in the manual. Then max up to 16 GB is possible.

    Data sheet:
    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c04454103

    Go through page 104, 105 in the manual steps of replacement are not easy, and I would say you contact center of HP service in your region for assistance if you are under warranty as it will void the warranty for major disassembly can cause unexpected problems, if you're not used to it.

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

    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)

  • Can I save the OSX 10.5.8 update to a memory stick?

    Hello

    I troubleshoot a computer Museum. We have recently been given 5 x iMacs Intel 2.16 Ghz I have reformatted all five back to Leopard (because it's the disc above I have). Currently, they are sitting on stock OSX.5. I want to upgrade to OSX 10.5.8 which is a download of 768 MB. Wifi at the Museum is very slow and there is no 'quiet time' internet-wise to be able to do this.

    Instead download the update on a memory stick from home, which is much faster and allows to install the update on each machine?

    Thank you very much.

    OK, so I did a quick search on this site and found the update. Guess I should really look at first before blindly ask questions!

    Here is the link.

    And the update is 287 MB, which would still take much too long on a slow connection to the Museum! I am downloading and record on a memory stick now. My only issue now is that the page says: the 10.5.8 update is recommended for all users running Mac OS X Leopard version 10.5.7

    I hope I can go directly from 10.5 to 10.5.8 and not worry about the updates between the two. I'm quite familiar with the updates, I started on my first Mac on Mac OS9.0.4 and played a bit with System 7.5.1 and its associated updates. And then OSX of Jaguar to leave.

  • Equium A60 - I'd like to update the RAM

    I have an Equium A60 with 256 MB of RAM - I would like to upgrade to as much RAM as possible

    Can anyone tell what is the maximum amount of RAM I can crack and what kind of RAM I need?

    Thank you...

    Hi guys

    I checked the manual and it says that you can use the 256 MB, 512 MB and 1 GB PC2100 or PC2700 RAM memory module can be improved up to 1.5 GB (1 GB + 512 MB) why?
    Because it has 512 MB internal memory, which is NOT removable!

    A module can be inserted into the slot that is placed at the bottom of the unit
    You should see a slot cover in the middle of the Panel which is fixed with a screw.
    Remove this screw and you would be abele to remove the cover of the location too.

    More details are mentioned in the user manual!

  • How to free up RAM memory in my macbook pro

    Hello

    How to free up RAM memory in my macbook pro

    In the current Mac OS x versions, Apple realized that the FREE RAM is not useful for anything whatsoever. What is needed is "instantly available RAM", and they began to be implemented in a number of ways. Free-ing RAM is no longer applicable.

    Some of your RAM may be used by an element called cache. These are copies of files read previously, in the hope that you will need to see again them soon. This RAM is said to be immediately available when an Application makes a request for the new RAM. In addition, little RAM is compressed. If it is referenced, Mac OS X can decompress a lot faster than to a new reading of the disc.

    The important point to look at the activity monitor is graphics memory. If it is not green, you may have to look more carefully at how you use your Mac and its RAM. The telltale signs that you need more are using PageOuts or Swap (but these counters start at zero at the start, so if you have worked for days, some will have invariably been used).
