Mac mini Mid 2010 RAM Replacement

Step 1 Bottom Cover



• Place your thumbs in the depressions cut into the bottom cover.
• Rotate the bottom cover counter-clockwise until the white dot painted on the bottom cover is aligned with the ring inscribed on the outer case.
Step 2

• Tilt the mini enough to allow the bottom cover to fall away from the outer case.
• Remove the bottom cover and set it aside.
Step 3 RAM
• Release the tabs on each side of the RAM chip by simultaneously pushing each tab away from the RAM.
• These tabs lock the chip in place and releasing them will cause the chip to "pop" up.
• After the RAM chip has popped up, pull it straight out of its socket.
• Repeat this process if a second RAM chip is installed.
