[triggerhappymoron]

[acguevara]

Yo I CANT see what u are doing

[bustfer07]

can i add more than 4 gigs? like maybe 5 or 6?

[scottmorrison26]

Great video man! Very helpful!

[Placebofan101]

Great video dude!!!!! I just bought a MacBook a few days ago and was wondering on the difficulty of installing more ram cause I only did the base model that comes with 2gb . I installed 4gb on my Mac mini and it was a breeze let's hope I can my MacBook goes as smoothly

[farshad040]

What do you do with the old ram?

[Razathus]

Say I upgraded from 2gb to 4 gb, and I wanted to watch a youtube video on 720, or 1080p, would the additional RAM decrease the loading time?

[Dane1mike]

@Razathus no that has to do with your internet speed

[Peroxide014]

@Razathus no, thats ur internet



[Joeing747]

Can you use any PC-8500 DDR3 ram? or do you have to buy the one from apple online store that costs more than 200 dollars?

[bobothetwit]

can the Macbook function on 3gb ram?

[caaltape1]

What is the property of the RAM that you placed?

[philipemongo]

i´ll put in 1 pce 4gb and let the one 1gb left in

[tylerwright118]

Does it support 8GB RAM?

[SonJupiter]

@tylerwright118 no only 4GB

[tylerwright118]

@SonJupiter No 8GB cause I got a 8GB kit and its working fine.

[nanky432]

@SonJupiter what was the tool you used to take the back panel off???

[droommoord]

@SonJupiter Apple says on it's site it doesn't support 8GB, but the motherboard actually supports 8GB.

[joserfjoserf]

yes support 8gb ram and 1tb hard disk

[izzylanebaker]

@tylerwright118 yea

[tercelkisor]

@tylerwright118 apple says it only supports 4 gigs but unofficial tests show that it takes 6 gigs.

[iMrBencivenni]

@tylerwright118 Yes it does support 8GB, search google! :D

[kmajdak]

@tylerwright118 

[bigman76543]

@tylerwright118 I actually believe it does. I think Apple only officially supports the 4GB but the maximum it can take it 8GB, I don't know for sure, but ill let you know later today when i try it out ;)

[hypermonkey3]

I am not so intelligent here but ill ask anyways if i were to do this when i put in my new ram do all the apps and files and all my good stuff leave when i do this or do i have to back it all up first then put it back in?

[SanadTech]

is there a difference in the speed and everything?

[SanadTech]

if i removed the battery and bought another one from apple, and put it in would it work?

[OskarOllie]

Thank you! Will use this for my upgrade! Great vid :)

[SonJupiter]

@OskarOllie Thanks man...

[Razathus]

Where did you buy the RAM?

Thanks for the vid dude :)

[evilblackrolf]

me, i remove the battery and after i do the upgrade... for most security...

[codeythesilent]

I don't NEED an antistatic wrist strap. Just keep yourself grounded.

[whatsagoodusername23]

also, so any type of ddr 3 ram then?

[whatsagoodusername23]

whats ur accent... it sounds cool

[frontier1701]

Even though you got the back off.. Battery still not user replaceable???

[SonJupiter]

@frontier1701 it isn't 

[asgabhelmi]

is it ok installing memory without take out the battery first?...

[SonJupiter]

@asgabhelmi it is sir..

[sjirti]

Hey,

Is it also possible to upgrade the hard drive in the Macbook?

[dreamexecution]

@sjirti yes, replacing the ram and hard drive will not void your warranty, they are user replaceable parts 

[AwwC00L]

people shut up bout the static strap you would be an idiout not to use one

[noobpies137]

I have a question, I heard the older model macbooks ( non-unibody) can only support up to 3gb even if you had 2x2gb of ram, does the 2010 read all four? thank you

[matty12345a1]

why do u need anti static were ulive

[SonJupiter]

@matty12345a1 its very dry here most of the time you touch metal there is static discharge plus the computer cost $1100

[GreenGold33]

I notice you mentioned the static issue. I have no sort of strap. The manual instructs me to touch the metal on the hard drive to release any static. Is this really a good idea?

[ravenfire77]

Do you recommend 4GB over 2GB, looking at buying my first Mac and wondered if there's a noticeable performance gap between 2 and 4 gigs of memory. Thanks

[bammargeraskate96]

hi i really want this computer is it capeable of playing world of warcraft? and also is it good for uploading videos to youtube because i want to start doing that unfortunately my mum says its too exspensive so im going to have to save up they wont be making a new one in the next 1-3 years will they? because i want it to last me.

[jacob6733]

@bammargeraskate96 Yes this will play Wow and they also will probably will release a new model even withing the next six months

[huskycubindy]

OMG you are actually using a grounding strap hahahaha

[SonJupiter]

@huskycubindy Yeah if you live where i live at you would too...

[sync380]

@SonJupiter Your profile says you live in Canada but may I ask in what part you live in!? Do you live in Nunavut or something I mean I live in the GTA and it is nowhere near that dry.

[YoMyNameisGeo]

hey can i uypgrade my macbook's ram from 2gb to like 8gb i want to know what's the diffrence...what will it show when using the computer? what will happen by upgrading to your computer

[fahadsha6521]

Great vid SonJupiter and i have a question ,,, can i change the RAM before i turn on the macbook for the first time ????

[SonJupiter]

@fahadsha6521 Yes you can do that.

[iMULTIPLAYERi]

What is the exact hard drive size and specs i need, im going to buy one and then take it to pc world for them to install it

[cornerbrooker]

Hi SonJupiter.  Another Great Video. I am thinking of upgrading my RAM from 4 to 8 Gigs. I would imagine that there is not much difference in upgrading a MacBook Pro's RAM. My question to you is this. Does removing the screws and upgrading the RaM yourself void the Apple warranty?

[SonJupiter]

@cornerbrooker Only if you break it.

[memo31silva49]

Where can I buy a RAM to install in my computer?

And is the install the same on every computer?

[SonJupiter]

@memo31silva49 newegg  Mushkin Enhanced 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1066

and this will work with all macs..

[kmx14]

since they're are 2 slots, wouldn't it work the same if you just added one 2GB card? I mean, do you HAVE to replace using both of them?

[SonJupiter]

@kmx14 yes it would..

[strickmans]

btw what did u mean when u got thw case at work?

how ur day so far

[SonJupiter]

@strickmans i'm buying it from futureshop that's where i work...

[strickmans]

@strickmans ok thx alot man

[strickmans]

[SonJupiter]

@strickmans oh it's faster for sure..
