so, what u guys do with with the original ram after u updated ur ram? sell it off?

mac use other brand ram can?

is the other brand ram stable as the original mac ram?

Yes, 2x2GB DDR3 1066MHz. I traded in my Macbook RAM.

does anybody knows where to get philip screwdriver size 00 to open up the macbook, i 've been looking to buy but cant get the right size.

u sure urs is value ram?? if yes, that good... KVR is much more cheaper compare with KTA

if KVR compatible... im going to upgrade macbook alu to 4GB soon

Futura, where did you traded in for the ram? which shop?

i dunno what im gonna do with my 2 stick 1gb ram, is there re-sell value ?

I just keep it, no one want buy it since new laptop comes 1 pair of 1GB ram already.

just wanna confirm, the late 08 MBP is compatible with 8gb ddr3 memory rite? thinking of upgrading to 4gb but then feel like not worth it since no OS support anyway. so i wanna upgrade to 8gb once i get the 64-bit snow leopard.

what's the max RAM i can go?

i don think it is worth it, now 4Gb ram cost like hell... and from i read, the 2.4 uMBP cant support more than 4GB.

@force,

when u say 4gb ram cost like hell, how much are we talking here ?

u mean the Maximum ram SL can support???

If u Mean SL
i can tell u the amount
tat is 16 billion GBs
But tats real

Macbook Pro 13, 15 and 17 : Max is 8gb
Mac Pro : Max is 32gb
Macbook white is not mistaken only can go 4gb max

but 8 gb of DDR3 ram will cost u a fortune
on Apple online store
8gb ram CTO cost u Rm3950

hey hey im not saying i wanna upgrade now hehe. of course wait till price go down la...

Mushkin ram....

You can get it from any hardware shop really. It's the small screw drivers that most people use to tighten their specs. Make sure you get the proper quality one. I broke the tip of my el cheapo set while opening my notebook halfway.

verced, i tried so many hardware shop and none have it but it's alright my fren has one.. managed to upgrade my macbook..
