RAM upgrade tips

Your computer can take up to 4GB, 2GB in each of the two slots.
It takes DDR3 PC3-8500, DDR3. Crucial, GSkill, Corsair are all good brands.
Go to www.crucial.com and let it scan your system to be sure.

 

you need 200 pin PC2-5300 DDR2 667 MHz ram... 2 x 2GB will work fine, but between your post and this link, your MBP should be able to take 6GB in the form of a 4gig and 2 gig stick.

 

are you sure about that, cause thats whats in the 2010s... the op has a 2007 or 2008, and apple's website says to use what i posted above

If it's the early 2008 4,1 MacBook Pro then it can take a Max of 6GB of RAM, even though Apple says it's 4GB.

 

That's why I am suggesting doing the scan. The OP was not sure of the year and if it's a late 2008, Crucial says to use the RAM above. Perhaps the OP could look at the Model Identifier in the System Profiler and see if it is a 4,1, but that would make it 2.4Ghz, and if that is the case, one 4GB and one 2GB chip for a total of 6GB is the max (PC2-5300 DDR2)

 

I think! Amazon technology ram will be the best and upto 6 G....!

 

Amazon doesn't manufacture ram ...

 

Normally you would go with samsung or hynix ram for maximal compatibility, since these are used by apple. But any other of the named manufacturers will likely suffice.

Here you find apple's instructions to make the change.

"For best performance, fill both memory slots and install an identical memory module in each slot."
So you should be able to install two different brands of ram.
