Hey guys, can someone point me in the direction of compatible and reliable RAM for my mid-2010 MBP? There's a bunch of brands and specs, I easily get lost in the jargon of it all. Thanks for any help.
Got a tip for us?

1066 is what Apple recommend however some people have had luck with the 1333. 1333 is more common hence the lower price.
Yep, that'll work too. I went with the Corsair because it's $35 shipped and it's a cool looking blue color.
Both the Corsair and G Skill use Hynix chips, so I'm assuming they're almost identical in performance.
Fastest possible SSD I can get, and now 8GB of RAM on the way. She's gonna be a beast and a half

Cool, much appreciated for the input! I went ahead with the Corsair since it was cheaper. My MBP has only 4 GBs RAM, so maxing it to 8GB would be a pleasant boost for my multi-tasking!
