[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1595211, member: 56379"] We already sort of covered this in your other SSD thread. Your MacBook has an 8gig of ram max. (with the proper bootrom update). From trusted suppliers like macsales.com & Crucial…an 8gig ram upgrade would cost around $104 dollars. These two suppliers usually have pretty good prices. So $40 bucks for an 8gig ram upgrade via eBay I would be very very wary about. In fact…you can't even get a 4gig ram upgrade (2 x 2gig) for less than around $50 from macsales or Crucial. Not all ram is the same. You may have seen plenty of ram (2 x 4gig) for $40 on eBay…but it may not be the correct ram…or compatible ram. - Nick [/QUOTE]
