A AFPoster macrumors 68000 Original poster Jul 14, 2008 1,565 152 Charlotte, NC Jul 30, 2011 #1 I have a 2011 MacBook Pro that I purchased with 4gb of ram. My friend has a 2008 black MacBook (5th gen) and he has 1gb of ram. Is it possible to give him my 4gb of ram since I just upgraded to 8gb? Basically will my ram work in his machine.
