Hi everyone,
I bought 16gb of ram off ebay for my late 2011 15" mbp and it seems to work just fine when using my laptop but doesn't pass the memtest. I tried booting my mac while holding command "s" and get the same results. Here's a copy of the results from Rember but when doing the full one I get a couple more errors then shown on this log.
Please tell me what you think, anything will help I know close to nothing about Ram
. The Ram is Patriot 16 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 that I bought off ebay, should I return it or try it since it seems to work? thank you for the help!
