MacBook Pro 13" Unibody Mid 2012 RAM Replacement

15 - 30 minutes

Easy

My Problem

My mid-2012 unibody MacBook Pro was being throttled, no more RAM, and before throwing it out the window thought I'd try adding the RAM.

My Fix

The repair went smoothly - and I'd never opened my laptop before so wasn't sure. But the guide was clear and it went great.

My Advice

I ordered 2 Phillips head screwdrivers because I had read conflicting advice: #0 and #00. I actually used the #0 as recommended and it worked great.
