Increased Performance at 1/2 the Cost

"Yes it definitely helps. Its has improved the viewing and manipulation of DICOM files. It makes operation faster and smoother. It's cheaper than buying it from Apple; it's about half the cost. It doesn't have the ECC bit and the Apple does but I'm not even sure how much of a difference that makes. So far I think it was a good purchase...." Read Full Review »

"I bought this before I got my MacBook Pro to bump up the memory from 2GB to 4GB. I had about 1 day to play with it before I upgraded it to 4GB and since nothing was installed on my machine, I really couldn't tell the difference but that's only because I never tried to push the memory.

"No need for RAM upgrade as I use a MAC. Having said that, upgrading was so easy, why not prolong the life of my MAC, for several more years by upgrading the RAM. Super easy to get the exact match on RAM. Putting it in was a breeze. Will never buy RAM anyplace else. "
