[QUOTE="Yatesy, post: 1489446, member: 291365"] Hi there After suffering the very slow speeds of Lion on my Macbook 2010 model, I have finally decided to purchase and upgrade my RAM memory to get it moving quicker. I know already that the laptop comes with 2GB Ram installed and that Apple say the max I can upgrade to is 4GB, but on a site called 'Other World Computing' it states that my computer will fully support 16GB of RAM. I looked into purchasing and everywhere seems very pricey, I did however find a site called 'Crucial' what is selling 16GB of RAM rather cheap ([url=http://www.crucial.com/uk/store/partspecs.aspx?IMODULE=CT2KIT102464BF1339]CT2KIT102464BF1339 - 16GB kit (8GBx2), 204-pin SODIMM , DDR3 PC3-10600 from Crucial.com[/url]) , it doesn't state that it supports my Macbook though and I don't want to spend money on something what could harm my computer. Would someone be able to help me out on this? Here is my computer's spec (according to apple): Processor and memory 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor with 3MB on-chip shared L2 cache 1066MHz frontside bus 2GB (two 1GB SO-DIMMs) of 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM; two SO-DIMM slots support up to 4GB Many Thanks [/QUOTE]
