[QUOTE="raddav, post: 1276245, member: 210029"] First time upgrade of ram on my late 2009 iMac. Purchased 2 matched 4GB crucial sticks but when I went to fit them to the 2 empty slots I can't get them to fit! I've watched video's, read the manual, doing everything right. Tried fitting the existing ram in the empty slots and still no luck. They new ram fits in the slots the original ram was in, so my question is how hard do you have to push the ram to fit it in the empty slots. I was pushing pretty hard!!! The ram in the two top slots furthest away from the display side went in pretty easy, not too much pressure!!!!! So at the moment I am running the new ram in the orignal populated slots with no problems. Thanks for any advice in advance [/QUOTE]
