Hi All,

Would like to know if anybody here successfully upgrade:

1. 16gb RAM 1666Mhz.

The specs said only covers up to 8Gb 1333Mhz and other manage to install 16Gb 1333Mhz. Since the 1333Mhz and 1666Mhz price is the most likely the same, i want to know if anyone has tried this?

2. Sata 3 SSD in Optical Drive

Based on my reading only mbp 13 for 2011 can successfully installed sata 3 ssd in optical drive. The result for 15 and 17 model are most of them failed.

Just want to know if anyone succeeded to try this.
Just want to treat my mbp 17 a boost since it has been serving me well for the pass 4 years.

I removed the DVD drive from my 2010 MacBook White and currently using a SATA 3 hard drive in its place. So far so good. Mod is same as any MBP 13 inch.
