hi all,

just got a MBP 13" early 2011 (2.3ghz) version. i would like to upgrade my ram to 8GB. i have read through the pages and it seems like there's only few ram is good.

So should i get KVR instead of Corsair?
seems like there's no problem with KVR.

thanks ppl

I'm currently on ACPP plan for 3 years, just bought my Macbook Pro 2011 13 i5 not long ago, I'm keen to do dual HDD setup by swapping the CD-ROM, with SSD. So basically, if anything went wrong, my warranty is void right? What about if swap back the CD-ROM before I send back to Apple? Do the warranty still void?
