i5 and i7 Quad Core iMac computers come with both top memory slots populated. These computers will not start up if only a single DIMM is installed in any bottom slot; these computers should operate normally with a single DIMM installed in any top slot. Core Duo iMac computers should operate normally with a single DIMM installed in any slot, top or bottom.

Use 4GB 512x64 PC3-10600 DDR3 SODIMM installed in pairs. Here's the RAM supplier I use that only handles Mac RAM: http://www.ramdirect.com/im2dd3.html
