Guys, can we upgrade MBP 13" mid 2012 from 8gb ram to 16gb? Any of you did? Can share if any issues? Send to service centre to upgrade or did on your own?

Hi,

Has anyone purchased from OWC? I'm thinking of purchasing RAM from them. Any problems with customs? Thanks.

Thanks mate! Any idea how much it costs?

PC1600 or PC1333? Can we buy and send to apple service centre for installation?

Looking to upgrade my Mid 2010 13inch MBP to a 250gb SSD. Any brands recommended?

Any brand you would recommend?

Compare that to the 840?

The thing about my MBP is that the fan keeps spinning in a very high speed and sometimes the computer is slow. Do you reckon that changing the SSD and blow out all the dust from the fan will help?
