No muss, no fuss

"Kicking myself for not getting a kit earlier. Going from 1 to 2 DIMMs *radically* improved performance & load times. Between the memory and upgrade to Snow Leopard it's like I got a new computer for under $100. Crucial made selecting the right DIMMs easy, easy ordering process[...]. Perfect, no problems...."

So Far So Good

"Popped the ram into my 17" MacBookPro and everything has been functioning A-OK for two weeks now. (Which i was happy about because i was worried about Mac compatibility based on friends' ram issues) I honestly don't recognize an increase in speed, but i have to believe its better since i just doubled my ram from 1G to 2G (both new sticks) which is the max it takes...."

"Being non-techie, I was concerned about not buying additional memory for my MacBook Pro directly from Apple, and having THEM install it. My techie son spoke highly about Crucial and their reliability. And I believed their guarantee for the extra memory. So I purchased the extra 2 Gigs, installed …"  Read Full Review »

"I use some memory hogs; Photoshop Elements and Olympus Master software that came with my new SLR camera. I could use 2 Gigs more of Practical RAM but the 2GB kit I purchased was as much RAM as my 17" MacBook Pro could be upgraded to. At least the software isn't locking up like it was before. I w …"  Read Full Review »

"Just needed to add memory to my 15.2" MacBook Pro. I replaced the original 1GB card, as well as added the 2nd 1GB card that comes in this pack and my MacBook runs a lot more smoothly, almost no little spinning rainbows to stare at for minutes after opening a new Safari tab, I can run Photoshop and P …"  Read Full Review »

"The memory installed perfectly, following the Macintosh user manual's procedures, which were easy to understand. It's not crucial's fault, but it is a little disconcerting to have to force the memory in, and then it doesn't line up against any reference point perfectly.
