Description
Adding RAM to your computer can provide a significant performance boost.
Please Note: the Mid 2010 21.5" iMacs (EMC 2389) & 27" iMacs (EMC 2390) with the Core i3 and the Mid 2011 27" iMacs (EMC 2429) with the Core i5 can only accept up to 4 of the 4 GB chips. This RAM will not work in these machines.
Note
That "Warranty Void if Removed" sticker is wrong. Feel free to peel that sucker off, we'll still honor our warranty. Our RAM supplier made a mistake in printing, and we're fixing it in our next order of memory.

Repair Stories
My hard drive went out on my late 2011 mbp but I didn’t want to spend money on a new laptop so I bought an ssd drive and I also decided to upgrade the ram. I bought a refurbished memory ram on ifixit.com because I didn’t want to spend much money plus they offer life time warranty on it and let m . . .
Upgrade RAM
SIMPLE
Follow the instructions and make sure you have the necessary tools
Just not enough ram for my taste
amazing
Replacing the ram in the earlier model macs can be the easiest of fixes. It really did only take me 30 seconds to replace the ram.
Super slow beachballing crashing
Incredibly easy to do ---- changed out the two 2GB RAM for two 8GB RAM in under 15 min.!
"Below Average" now overall on EtreCheck instead of "Failed" b/c back-up disk is too small. Can't do anything about that with this old machine. Very happy I can keep using it . . .
Need for speed...I typically have 5+ windows open all the time so speed suffers and the 8GB the laptop came with was slowing down. The price from iFixit was good, warranty great, and the directions simple.
Almost without a hitch. I have oversized fingers (size 13.5 wedding band) so it took a little e . . .
Just wanted to max-out the RAM
No problems
Keep up with the screws, make sure you reinstall the correct screws in the correct holes.
My MacBook was getting too slow.
It was such an easy task, finished it in less than a min after opening it up.
Big improvement than what I was experiencing before.
J'avais un problème avec la capacité de la mémoire vive de mon MacBook Pro. Je suis passé de 4G à 16G de mémoire vive. Il réagit très bien.

Très bien
Tout était très bien expliqué.
Just a slow processing computer ever since yosemite. 4 mb ram is not enough and 500gb hard drive not enough space.
Easy, I figured while had it open a new SSDHD was nessery along with 16gb ram. With the great instructions, I had both done in about 1/2 hour once i started.
Read all of the instructi . . .
The computer was incredibly slow and was running out of free space.
The repair was quite simple and intuitive. According to the comments, I didn't disconnect all the wires and the repair was still really easy.
You can add thin pieces of foam to reduce HD vibrations.
