[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 1625648, member: 8287"] Nick, on all the take apart guides on the normal 21.5" iMac the ram is in sockets but you have to take the whole thing apart and logic board out to change it. Not sure about new Low end 21.5 with the Macbook Air specs. It just might be soldered. [url]https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/iMac+Intel+21.5-Inch+EMC+2638+Teardown/17829[/url] it's a Pain but the ram still is in sockets! I doubt it will be for very much longer. :D [/QUOTE]
