[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1798342, member: 175845"] Thinking about this a bit more, and considering that we use a 2007 iMac with 6GB memory but with a HDD, I really wonder if adding the extra 2GB of memory would even be noticeable considering they have a SSD installed that would probably be at least 2X faster than any HDD and that iMac also supports 3GB/s SATA bus speed I believe. I may be out to lunch, but my thinking is that if the hard drive was ever needed for memory use, having the SSD installed would be almost as fast as if more memory was added. Just an unfounded thought, but maybe someone has done such a test and posted it somewhere. I just don't know where. - Patrick ====== [/QUOTE]
