[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 1595157, member: 8287"] Both URLs I gave say Aluminum Unibody. They say it will do 8GB but have a note. I went to the opening of my Apple Store in late 2008. Only the Aluminum was available at that time. Your URL you just gave is the one in my original post. From your URL and what I was saying: 2 GB of RAM is installed as two 1 GB modules, no slots free. *Apple officially supports a maximum of 4 GB of RAM. Originally, this model was only unofficially capable of stably supporting 6 GB of RAM, but as confirmed by site sponsor OWC, it is capable of supporting 8 GB of RAM if updated to Boot ROM Version MB51.007D.B03 and running MacOS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard" or higher." So if you update the bootrom, yes 8 is stable. Just warning so the OP will not have issues. [/QUOTE]
