[QUOTE="6string, post: 1009284, member: 120039"] It will handle the 6+2, but I find that it's always better to use matched Ram in notebooks.... 2x1, 2x2, 2x4. Running [URL="http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/system_disk_utilities/onyx.html"]Onyx[/URL] and choosing the automation tab may be your first point of call, and also, how much unused space do you have on your HD? 2GB is plenty for most users, and 8GB is a bit excessive unless you are really going for it with a heavy load! I would go into Activity Monitor and have a look at what you are utilizing while on 2GB. If anything, in all likelyhood, 4GB would be as far as you wanted to go. [/QUOTE]
