Hey guys, im new here and have already learned a lot. I just want to confirm something before I pull the trigger.
I have a MBP Unibody 15" 2.4 GHz (Late 2008) model A 1286. (bought just 16 days before the new ones came out, but whatever)
Model Name: MacBook Pro
Model Identifier: MacBookPro5,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.4 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 3 MB
Memory: 2 GB
Bus Speed: 1.07 GHz
Boot ROM Version: MBP51.007E.B00
I want to upgrade the ram, i found this PC3-8500 2 GB RAM Chip - iFixit So i need two of those? i already read the write up and it seems easy as can be to do the swap. Also is there a tool set that would be specific to my machine? This one looks nice 20 Piece Bit Driver Kit - iFixit
what else should i be doing while im inside the laptop? anything i should be inspecting? and recommendations on what else i should change to incease the speed and efficiency?
