Gskill ram for late 2009 unibody macbook pro?

[butters149]

Hi,

I was wondering if the Gskill 8GB kit from newegg would be plug and play for the late 2009 15" unibody macbook pro? also does it make the system run faster? I am also running parallels right now on my 4GB DDR3 and it's a bit slow. Also is there another website besides newegg for buying these gskill rams?

It works perfectly. Read the reviews on Newegg. They say the same thing.

anybody heard of a brand called "Lifetime"?

Works in my MBP Mid '09. I ordered two single 4 GB DIMMs, instead of the 8 GB kit because its a little cheaper.

I'm considering going this route as well, buying two 4GB sticks, separately. They are $114.99 + Free shipping each - heck of a deal for 8GB.

I'm assuming that these "pair" just fine for dual channel and that there is nothing funny that would prevent them from doing so, even though they aren't the "kit". Can you or anyone else verify the configuration is still operating in dual channel mode?
