RAM for MacBook
-
Hi all,
Am interested in getting RAM for my MacBook, but the one they are selling in Apple Shop is $262...which is totally crazy. So any recommended places for me to get cheap RAM?
Thanks -
RAM for computers are all the same. Sim Lim and Funan will sell. Double check what type of RAM is your motherboard able to support first.

furthermore the macbook already comes with 2gb or 4gb of ddr2 667mhz ram... wat more u wan??? -
Sorry man...mine is a promo. item given by SingNet. So they gave 512MB not 1GB.

No matter how propriety, all hardware have some sort of standard. Yes, it's hard to upgrade a notebook, but still doable. The only thing - warranty. I've never seen a Mac warranty before, so I'm not sure what will happen if you attempt to open up a Macbook.

not reccommended for big palms and sweaty palms to change ram.. -
Notebooks quite easy, but OEM PCs are not. Just to open the casing only gives me headache.Originally posted by Rockhound:most notebooks nowadays very easy to upgrade...

I hope this does not serves as advertising.

It's quite easy to upgrade your MacBook's RAM. Your warranty will not be void. The two parts that users can replace without a total dismantle, thus triggering any warranty issue; are the RAM and the battery.
Learn how to correctly install memory into a MacBook portable computer.
Your MacBook computer has two memory slots that you access by removing the memory door in the battery bay. Your MacBook comes with at least 512 megabytes (MB) of 667 MHz Double Data Rate (DDR2) Synchronous Dynamic Random-Access Memory (SDRAM) installed.
Both memory slots can accept an SDRAM module that meets the following specifications:
* Double Data Rate Small Outline Dual Inline Memory Module (DDR SO-DIMM)
format
* 1.25 inch or smaller
* 512 MB or 1 gigabyte (GB)
* 200-pin
* PC2-5300 DDR2 667 MHz Type RAM - Very Important!
Follow the steps in the link below.

I just upgraded my IBM Thinkpad R52 from 512 mb RAM to 2 gb RAM.
2 piece of 1GB * PC2-5300 DDR2 667 MHz Type RAM for $64.85 each
Upgrade to 1.25GB marked improvement
from there to 2GB not much difference
Just that I can multitask many many many programs at the same time now... Which I do very often normally... 
Anyway just want to say RAM for notebooks are easily upgradeable. Others are not so easy... -
Well...I did it for my Thinkpad T43, 512MB i add in another 1GB. So now running on 1.5GB of RAM, will most probably buy another 1GB at the end of the month. But the MacBook is alittle complicated...their RAM holds a high price man...
