Received my 8GB RAM upgrade yesterday from OWC, installed it perfectly fine, but then I kept messing with it to make sure it was connected all the way, I ended up pushing one of the sticks too far down and it got stuck. Long frustrating story short, I ended up having to force the memory out and it damaged the edges of it. I didn't even try to re-install the new memory, reinstalled the old stock memory and everything is fine.
Am I SOL on the new memory? I called OWC and they pretty much told me they wouldn't do anything about it. (I'm not saying they should, it was my fault). Does anyone know of any options with my new slightly damaged memory to try and recoup some of my loss? I'm so mad at myself for messing with it after I successfully put it in. Bad feeling I'm gonna end up paying for another 8GB kit and now my cost is well over $700 for an 8GB upgrade... FAIL
