can we change ourself the ram?i thought it fixed alredi....

for sure you can change the ram by your own

only MBA cannot. for MB/MBP it's even in the manual (well it used to be, not sure now)

iMac also can change. but quite hard lah

Can..but need some putty knife to open the case

just when ahead and upgrade my mbp 2009 to 5gb ram.

KVR1066D3S7/4G 1066MHz PC3-8500, 1066MHz CL7- rm245

like what calvin did. absolute satisfied xD now i can fully utilized premiere pro.

installed ocz vertex2 1.23 into my 2009 MBP.. and its extremely snappy

apps opens damn fast and system very responsive

very happy with the upgrade

Hi guys, would like to ask about macbook charging

would it harm the battery ?

ok guys...help me out here i juz bought a seagate momentus xt. last night i was trying to install it but got problem. i'll go one by one

1) took my WD out n swap in the seagate. booted from OSX dvd, erased the drive to HFS journaled, then proceed to Restore from my time machine. it proceeded to erase the seagate, then it was "transferring files... 0%" for about half an hour (the estimated remaining time was 1400+ hrs n counting lol). so i gave up. Repair disk didnt work.

2) swapped back my WD into my mbp, erased the usb-connected seagate using disk utility. this time i use SuperDuper to clone the WD to the seagate. when it's done, i swapped the seagate back in, but cannot boot. stuck at the plain grey screen (without apple logo). when i reboot and holding down option, no icon was shown.

3) i connected the WD by usb n booted off it. when i open disk utility, i realize the seagate SMART status is not available (it should, seeing as it is installed internally)

4) i swapped the WD back in, n this time externally boot off the seagate via USB. guess what, it runs fine! so i boot from the WD, then in DU i juz do a Repair disk for the seagate, and also used Drive Genius to repair again

5) then i swapped the seagate back in, try to boot, still cannot. same problem as in (2), plain grey screen. PRAM reset didnt help either

any idea what's going on?

last resort is you should try to install fresh copy of osx instead restore from time machine/superduper. see how it goes & report back.

Juz tried installing fresh copy. Stuck at 0% too. I checked in DU the smart status is still not available

I want to buy 500GB seagate momentus XT for my macbook pro, but the 32MB is twice the price of 16MB.. Is it worth the price or should I just get the 16MB?

the XT only comes in 32MB cache. the half-price 16MB is normal momentus drive, not the XT

@dvlzplayground
So bro ... How was your installation of the XT? already kawtim?

i got a bad unit. talked to seagate customer service n they told me to get a replacement. i already sent it back n now waiting for the new one to arrive
