[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1789386, member: 56379"] The 2010 MacBook Pro 7,1 can support 16gig of RAM...as long as the caveats are adhered to (correct OS version or higher...and install EFI update). Then the big question is...do you REALLY want to spend $157+ for a 16gig RAM upgrade for a computer that's probably only worth in the range of $200 (assuming 13" model). 8gig RAM upgrade is $75. Not sure where you're reading these "too many to remember" posts. But it's a bunch of "phoney-baloney".;) Do you know how hot your computer can get when it starts doing demanding video tasks??...the extra heat produced by a 7200rpm vs. 5400rpm HD is very minimal in comparison. Get the 7200rpm drive!:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
