is the system using all 8GB's or just 6GB?
this is really late, but its all addressed under the latest snow leopard and lion.
I'm now looking to get a SSD installed once I consolidate my crap so i can use a 120-128GB HD.
I installed 8GB 1333 MHz OWC RAM on my late 2008 unibody MBP and am puzzled that it runs at 1333 MHz. Is that even possible? I thought those MBPs support 1067 MHz only. Any ideas?

are these good to go in the 2008 aluminum macbooks?
looking to upgrade from 4 to 8gb to tie me over until i get the new macbook pro refresh when its out.
I am about to upgrade my late 2008 aluminum MacBook 2.4 Ghz to 6GB of ram from owc but wanted to know if the will support 8GB, running at full stability. From what I can tell from other threads is that the owc 8GB kit doesn't work is this correct? If it can handle 8GB of ram I will do that instead of 6GB. Thanks for any help.
Hi, I'm currently using late 2008 13-inch aluminium Macbook. My Macbook is currently using 8GB DDR3 RAM. I won't say it works perfectly and running at full stability, because I encounter kernel panic at some point of using the Macbook. So I won't say it works perfectly, but it does boost the performance of the Macbook itself. I don't know the cause of the kernel panic yet, but there are two possible reason. First is the RAM itself and second is overheating. Using bigger RAM means more voltage that will result more heat to your Macbook. I think it is okay if you're using it under low temperature area. I used final cut pro X and encounter it sometimes while I'm using it, but it doesn't disturb me that much.
