hello all,

I have some newbie questions here to ask. Am planning to upgrade my MBP 13" to SSD and 8GB RAM. Since you guys mentioned in previous reply that should go for SSD first :

- current MBP is 500GB, can I only upgrade to the same storage capacity or higher?
- what are the recommended brands available? I have browsed thru LYN, recommended ones are Intel and Crutial.
- in order to choose which SSD model, I've to check on the read and write speed am i right?

one question on RAM :-

- which type of latency timing of RAM should i get? Just tried googling on the explanation of 9-9-9 but don't really understand. the lower the number the better isit?

How do I check for the SATA connection?

If current RAM is DDR3 1600 so I must choose back the same range?

thank you for the info! people here are really friendly
