Macbook Ram Upgrade

Simple upgrade of my Macbook’s ram from 2gb to 4gb. Definitely an improvement in the speed of the machine.
Shout-outs to my brother who purchased the ram as my Christmas present. Thanks again!

    I strongly suggest you order the ram yourself and installing without Apple. They usually way over charge for ram upgrades.

    Im thinking of getting the New Macbook 2.4Ghz , 320GB HD but im debating on the 2GB Ram or 4GB. Do you think its worth getting it done by Apple in my order , Or waiting and getting it upgraded at a later date?

    I think it won’t be covered by the warranty due to the fact that it was self inflicted, but always always double check with Apple.

    Yeah but the …
    Yeah but the chances of actually damaging equipment with static electricity is so slim. First with a MacBook like this, she wasn’t touching any of the electronics inside the MB. She was simply inserting the RAM sticks into the slots. Similar to the way you would insert a CD into the CD-ROM slot. Just avoid rubbing your stocking feet on carpeting before doing it, and everything should be fine.

    Yeah thats a good upgrade. Your MacBook’s chipset should be able to utilize about 3.3 gigs of memory. So you’ll be using most of the 4 gig. Also with the matched pairs, you’ll be running dual channel for additional for additional speed. It will be noticeable faster.

    btw you didn’t actually ground yourself and you could of still caused damage to your mac book as the scissors you touched were not attached to earth so the electricity didn’t go anywhere.

    the best way to do it is touch a cold water pipe as they have a wire on them that takes any charge out of your body straight to earth.

    But you had to touch something grounded.
    and i think you don’t need to do that inside of a laptop.
