Slow start after MacBook Pro mid 2012 Kingston XFury 240 GB SSD upgrade
Hi dude, I would ask why, after I upgraded my MacBook Pro mid 2012 at Kingston XFury 240 GB SSD, my MacBook Pro take more than an hour at the system boot? The purpose of my mac said the SSD (S.M.A.R.T. is checked) and RAM information. I also restart the EL Capitan already.
Is - this problem is hardware or software?
Did you properly prepare the new SSD?
Install OS X using the recovery network
Make sure that you have backed up your files because the following procedure will remove all of the hard drive.
Start on the recovery of the network server:
Restart the computer after the ring, press in and hold the COMMAND + OPTION + R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15 - 20 minutes - until the main recovery menu appears.
Partition and format the hard disk:
- Select in the main menu disk utility and click on the continue button.
- After load of THE select your newly installed hard drive (this is the entrance Out-dented with the mfgr.) ID and size) in the list on the left. Click the Partition tab in the main window of THE.
- Under the scheme of titled Volume set the number of partitions in the menu drop-down one. Click the Options button, set the GUID partition scheme, and then click the OK button. Set the type of Mac OS extended (journaled) format. Click on the apply button and wait until the process is complete. To leave and return to the main menu.
Reinstall OS X: Select reinstall OS X and click on the continue button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
Note : You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest to use Ethernet if possible because it's three times faster than wireless.
This should restore the version of OS X, originally installed on the computer.

I am on a MacBook Pro mid 2012, Yeosmite 10.10.5, I want to switch to Sierra and am nervous to do when I had a terrible experience upgrade to Yosemite, support with gratitude by Apple in charge. I have everything backed up on Time Machine. Are there steps of preparation I need to do before you download and upgrade to Sierra. Can you please advise me please?
N ° so you have a backup if something goes wrong you can return to Yosemite.
Only concern is that some devices, including USB that may require the updated drivers, but these records are not always available

I own a Macbook pro mid 2012. Now I want to increase the RAM of 4 GB to 8 GB, please suggest if this update will help me to improve my performance to macbook.
It will help in cases where the applications require more than 4 GB of RAM. Otherwise, there will be no noticeable difference. If you really want to increase the speed, an SSD is the best option. They cost about 3 x's + more than a traditional HDD of same capacity...
Ciao.

What do you see in the activity monitor to suggest that the RAM is fine?
The EtreCheck report shows that you have only 33MB of free RAM in time, which can only cause slowdowns. Google Chrome only takes 1.3 GB of it. Chrome is a Devourer of enormous resources, so if possible, try to quit smoking by using another browser.

16 GB of RAM with a work for the MacBook Pro mid 2012 13 "i5 location?
Hey,.
one of my two RAM slots no longer works. I always wanted to update my 16 GB RAM. I know that my MacBook Pro can have 16 GB of RAM with 2x8GB - RAM modules. But is it possible to have 16 GB of RAM with a slit (1x16GB) ?
Call OWC (macsales.com) and Crucial to ask, but the kits which they tested for 16 GB is 2x8GB.

I want to upgrade my RAM 16 GB (2x8GB) and also to change the hard drive (750 GB) to a 250 GB SSD. I was going through the forum and people have posted that they have improved their RAM with no problems. I visited the local electronics market and is the knowledge that they have a Kingston 8 GB DDR3 1600 MHz RAM. I just want to know if it is safe to add that RAM for my MBP or not? One of my friends told me that the MBP requires a different sort of RAM so I am confused. In addition, I was intending to buy a single 8 GB and set up my MBP with 12 GB (8 + 4) RAM and then replace the other 4 GB with an 8 GB to make eventually 16GB. Will there be a problem with this approach? Also can I add any SSD fits laptops from my system? I found an SSD 240 GB (uv300) Kingston. Please suggest if I can add that.
You can fit a maximum of 16 GB, if you choose compatible Ram.

I want to upgrade my MacBook Pro mid-2012 with an SSD
I got the MacBook Pro 13 inch mid-2012 non-retine, it is only 1 year. And I would like to replace the HARD drive with the EVO of 850 Samsung 500 GB 2.5 inch SATA III internal SSD I was wondering if this would correspond to my Mac. Also, how exactly do to install it. I thought I was doing the StarTech USB 3.0 to 2.5 "SATA III hard drive adaptor cable w / UASP - SATA to USB 3.0 Converter for SSD/HDD - Hard Drive cable adapter so I can get the system running before putting it in my Mac. I was wondering also I need another thing as a kit Assembly or not. Can someone please help me I'm completely lost.
Thanks, Conor

Note that the SSD is the same form factor and the HD 2.5 "also note that one of them might allow you to test first the SSD and clone your internal drive which him.

Dv5 1170el upgrade ram from 4 GB to 8 GB [HELP]
Hi all
I have HP Dv5 1170el with this configuration:
- CPU: Intel Core Duo T9400
- RAM: 4 GB ddr2 SODIMM 800 mhz pc2-6400
- HARD drive: 320 GB (5,400 rpm) Scorpio
I ordered a Samsung 500 GB SSD and I want upgrad RAM 8 GB (expandable to the maximum), but my problem is:
I have been informed that probably not all the ram can be installed on this laptop (same model, same mhz but different brand)
I found online this similar to the one already installed RAM but would like to learn from experienced users, it is at least 100% compatible with your laptop. Attached is the connection of the ram, I want to buy:
It would be pointless to buy this ram then if the laptop detects me!
Please help me!
Thank you very much!
It is reassuring to have confirmation from an expert.
I immediately contact the manufacturer for more information on their products that I'm about to buy.
However, the price is almost the same, because I come from Italy.A hot day and I thank you once again.

Is it safe to upgrade RAM from 4 GB to 16 GB on mid2012 13 "MBP?
It's time to upgrade RAM and OWC claims it is safe to upgrade to 16 GB on my mid-2012 13 "MBP with 2.5 GHz processor Intel Core i5 and 500 GB hard drive, but everything on the Apple site indicates upgrade max is 8 GB. I want speed, but worry, it could be too much for the material.
Anyone else tried the more memory RAM successfully?
In theory this is your memory needs:
Maximum memory (Real) 16 GB 8 GB (Apple) Memory locations 2-204-pin PC3-12800 (1600 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM The answer to your question is that you can upgrade to 16 GB. Because it depends on the machine itself, we cannot assure you that it is "safe". It may work or it may not work. This isn't a certified Apple upgrade. It is rather an upgrade coming OWC. They sell RAM for this upgrade. Other vendors such as DataMem and Crucial RAM probably do not sell 16 GB upgrade kits.
