Hi. So I have a new (well, about 1 month old) Blackbook that came with 2GB of RAM (1gb of RAM sticks x 2). I upgraded it to 4GB of RAM with 2GB x 2 of OWC RAM sticks, and decided to keep the "old" 2 sticks of 2GB RAM. What I would like to know is whether it is allowable to put these sticks into an older White MB (all I know about it for now is that 1) it came with OS X Tiger, 2) it has 60GB of HD space...)...hopefully this is enough information, but tomorrow morning I can get more information if it is needed as I will have access to the laptop by then. So is it doable? What are the risks of attempting the swap?

Thanks for your time :).
 
The ram should swap perfectly fine into the older MB. The oldest version of the MB still uses the same speed ram as the current version. So there should be absolutely no issues with swapping in the newer modules.
